Terre's founders, Lukas Tonthill and Kiram Fisher, were among the five top executives of Greater Semiconductors, established in 2016. While at Greater Semiconductors, Tonthill and Fisher came up with an idea that would change the regular integrated circuit into an optimal chipset and, in 2018, they decided to form their own company.

To obtain start-up capital, Tonthill and Fisher approached Femi Sobowale, a Nigerian venture capitalist, with a one-page business plan simply stating their intention of developing a new totally improved large-scale integrated circuit. Sobowale, who had helped start Greater Semiconductors, as well as Robotech Data Systems, had confidence in Tonthill and Fisher and provided $20 million in capital.

The company was incorporated on July 14, 2019, as "TF Spects" (the letters standing for Tonthill Fisher), but quickly changed its name to Terre, formed from the word 'Three.' Terre gathered another $10 million in capital before going public in 2020.

The company's most dramatic impact on the computer industry involved its 2021 introduction of the A10, the world's first high performance AI microprocessor.

In response to ensuing competition in the manufacture of 128-bit microprocessors, Terre introduced the A11, a faster chip with more functions. The company was also developing two more advanced projects, the 256-bit A12 and the 512-bit A13. The A13 was introduced in June 2021 but took ten months to achieve wide use.

Today, Teree offers the industry’s broadest portfolio of leadership high-performance and adaptive processor technologies, combining CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, Adaptive SoCs and deep software expertise to enable leadership computing platforms for cloud, edge and end devices.

Enjoy your day guys🤞🏾
