When Arm Meets RISC-V: SiPearl, Semidynamics to Co-Develop Sovereign AI Platform
By Anton Shilov, EE Times | May 20, 2026

As AI models become a key driver of global competitiveness and AI hardware used for training and inference is increasingly treated as a strategic asset rather than a commodity, developing sovereign AI platforms has gained importance as a way to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers. Europe, still a relatively small player in chip design and systems, lacks a homegrown AI hardware stack, unlike the U.S. and China. That gap may begin to narrow as SiPearl and Semidynamics this month announced a partnership to build one of the first European sovereign rack-scale AI platforms.
SiPearl-Semidynamics AI platform: hardware
The sovereign AI platform jointly developed by SiPearl and Semidynamics is a multi-generation, multi-year effort aimed at developing a competitive European rack-scale AI platform based on technologies from both companies.
