Mixx Technologies Appoints Former Broadcom Executive BC Ooi to Board Amid Co-Packaged Optics Push for AI Infrastructure

Mixx Technologies, a company focused on silicon-integrated optical connectivity for AI infrastructure, announced on December 10, 2025, the appointment of Boon Chye (BC) Ooi to its Board of Directors. Ooi, a semiconductor executive with over 30 years of experience, previously served as Senior Vice President of Global Operations at Broadcom Inc. (formerly Avago Technologies) for over a decade, where he managed worldwide manufacturing, procurement, and logistics. Before Broadcom, Ooi held senior roles at Xilinx and Intel.

The appointment follows Mixx's closure of a $33 million oversubscribed Series A funding round, led by ICM HPQC Fund with participation from TDK Ventures, Systemiq Capital, Banpu Innovation & Ventures, G Vision Capital, Ajinomoto Group Ventures, AVITIC Innovation Fund, and other partners.
