Samsung VenturesQualcomm VenturesNextSilicon was founded in 2017, well before the GenAI boom, as a deep tech company focused on developing next-generation intelligent compute architecture for the HPC market. Its Maverick-2 ICA pioneers a new era in HPC computing for developers, paired with a user-friendly and powerful developer toolchain that natively supports popular languages such as C/C++, FORTRAN, OpenMP, and Kokkos, eliminating the need for domain-specific languages.
The company also presents its first server-class RISC-V CPU core, Arbel, designed from the ground up on TSMC technology to deliver unprecedented throughput for data-center workloads. In 2023, Sandia National Laboratories, leading a tri-lab consortium with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and Los Alamos National Laboratory, announced a partnership with NextSilicon to deliver the next Advanced Architecture Prototype System.
