About Nordic ID
Nordic ID is a Finnish company that makes RFID tracking solutions, which use radio tags and readers to locate and count items without line of sight. Its work covers handheld readers and related software for inventory, retail and asset tracking rather than chip design. It began in 1986 as a small team focused on item tracing in Finland. The company joined the Brady Corporation group in 2021 and was rebranded as Nordic ID Technology in 2024. It sits outside compute hardware and is included as an edge data capture business.
Nordic ID was founded in 1986 and is based in Salo, Finland. It is listed under Custom Silicon, Edge Computing.

What Nordic ID works on
Custom Silicon
Custom silicon means a company designs its own chips for its own products or data centers instead of buying standard parts. The chip is made by a foundry such as TSMC, but the design belongs to the customer.
Edge Computing
Edge computing means processing data close to where it is produced, on a device or a nearby server, instead of sending everything to a distant cloud data center. In chip terms, edge processors are small, low-power chips that run software and AI models inside phones, cameras, cars and sensors.
