Intel to Spin Off Intel Capital as Independent Entity by 2025

Global chipmaker Intel Corporation has announced plans to establish its investment and venture capital arm, Intel Capital, as an independent company. According to a report by Reuters, the initiative aims to enhance operational efficiency and will be implemented in the second half of 2025.
Intel stated that the new company will operate under a different name, with Intel Capital’s existing team transitioning to the standalone entity. Intel will remain a key investor in the newly formed company.
David Zinsner, Intel’s interim co-CEO and CFO, remarked in a statement, “This initiative creates a win-win situation. It will enable Intel Capital to expand its operations by securing new sources of capital while fostering long-term strategic partnerships for both companies.”
Founded in 1991, Intel Capital currently manages assets exceeding $5 billion, with investments spanning four critical technology sectors: silicon, frontier technologies, devices, and cloud solutions.
On the same day, identity protection startup Orchid Security announced raising $36 million in its initial funding round, led by Intel Capital and Team8.
