Enabling Agile CI/CD in Chip Design: Running Synopsys EDA Flows from GitHub 

Date: Aug 04, 2026 | 9:00 AM PST

Featured Speakers:

  • Achim Nohl, Distinguished Architect, Synopsys
  • Varun Shah, Product Management Director, Synopsys

 

Hardware teams are moving to GitHub, CI/CD, and Pull Request-driven workflows, but EDA tools often sit outside that loop - breaking collaboration and slowing agentic automation.

This Synopsys webinar demonstrates how Synopsys Cloud GitHub Apps bring chip design and verification flows directly into GitHub events such as pull requests, pushes, and slash commands.

See how EDA runs as ephemeral cloud workloads with results posted back as PR checks and comments, enabling continuous verification without leaving GitHub. We’ll also cover security models for IP-sensitive environments and how GitHub-native EDA unlocks agent-driven workflows where AI can trigger, interpret, and act on design tool results - closing the gap between software-style hardware development and traditional EDA execution.
