As the Bratislava offices were supposed to be the company's R&D department, it's now left with very little in the way of physical presence, seeing as its Las Vegas location is a virtual office , the Sunnyvale address is a shared space , and the Taiwan spot is likewise a virtual rental .
In a 2020 press release ( archive link ) that seems to have been selectively removed from its website in the past six months — as all other 2020 press releases still exist — Tachyum had said that the space was "7,000 sq. ft. of modern Class-A offices capable of accommodating 50 people, an internal datacenter, laboratory, Q&A; infrastructure and a supercomputer reference design site."
The company's Prodigy chip was announced in May 2018 for a tape-out the following year, but was the subject of repeated delays, ever-shifting specifications, and essentially a yearly revision of its release date and characteristics. Tachyum's performance and power efficiency promises are not modest. As of this writing, Tachyum's website still proudly claims its Prodigy will deliver a 21x speedup over Nvidia Rubin Ultra.
