Chip company Astera Labs, in which Israeli entrepreneur Avigdor Willenz is a founding investor, has surged since its IPO last week. This exit joins Willenz's string of successes in the world of chips, which began with the sale of Galileo to American company Marvell for $2.7 billion in 2000 and continued with the sale of Annapurna to Amazon for $360 million in 2015 and the sale of Habana Labs to Intel for $2 billion in 2019.
