Behind the device you hold in your hand is a company that made a much better bet than it should have.

Tech Foundry is a documentary channel that tells the story of the engineers and board decisions that built the electronics world — going all the way down to the silicon chip, to the engineer who designed it. We tell the story of the chip wars nobody remembers, startups that rose to prominence from a garage perspective, and giants that dominated a market for a decade only to collapse in eight months because of a single meeting, a single lawsuit, or a memo leaked at the wrong time.

Its episode is based on official records, patents, period press, and witness accounts — an honest, not a flattering, version.
