I was fortunate enough to attend the RISC-V China Summit in Hangzhou in August. As a premium sponsor, SiFive had a large presence at the show with a booth in the exhibition hall and several executive presentations. The inspiration for writing this blog was when a great friend of mine asked me to compare and contrast this event with other recent RISC-V events held in North America and Europe. My high-level response was;

One of the primary motivations behind my decision to join SiFive was the opportunity to define, articulate and execute our go-to-market initiatives for a range of high value market segments. Several analysts have created their estimates of market share growth into these segments including Omdia (see chart below). SiFive has strong momentum, but, to me, the infrastructure/datacenter segments are particularly exciting.

SiFive has a global footprint, working with the world's largest semiconductor manufacturers, automakers, global hyperscale data centers, and consumer device companies. It’s no surprise then that we’re frequently at industry shows and events around the globe. We recently participated in shows across Asia, Europe, and the U.S., and we’re off to RISC-V Summit China next. Read on to learn more about our latest activities and what’s ahead.
