TOKYO — Tenstorrent is preparing to take contracts for designing advanced chips in Japan, with plans to increase engineers there more than sixfold, the Toronto-headquartered contract semiconductor design company said Thursday.

Tenstorrent has been training Japanese engineers at its U.S. sites with support from the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. It currently has about 15 engineers in Japan, a number it expects to increase to more than 100 by the end of the year.
