BOLOGNA, Italy — For years, RISC-V open-standard instruction set architecture worked quietly behind the scenes, mostly appearing in microcontrollers, hard drives, and specialized industrial applications. But at this week’s RISC-V Summit Europe 2026 in Bologna, the message to the global tech community was unequivocal: The architecture has matured and now targets data centers, edge AI, and space exploration markets.
“RISC-V is now,” said Andrea Gallo, CEO of RISC-V International, during his opening keynote address to a full auditorium.
Gallo’s speech showed that RISC-V is close to major commercial growth. According to the SHD Group, RISC-V could reach 33.7% market share across all hardware segments by 2031.
