Evertiq Article: SiFive Expands Into Portland Area’s Silicon Forest

SiFive has opened a development office in Beaverton, Oregon, to provide local support to customers and partners and help fuel the mass adoption of the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) taking place in the region and throughout the world.
The Beaverton office will be managed by Sunil Shenoy, senior vice president and general manager of the RISC-V Business Unit at SiFive. The company’s current development tools team, established in September 2018 and headed by Rick Leatherman, a local technology entrepreneur and now director of development tools for SiFive, will also operate from the new office space.
“The Portland area has become an international center of open source hardware development,” Shenoy said. “There is a steady stream of RISC-V based innovation at both large and small companies in the area. Establishing a presence in the robust Silicon Forest underscores our commitment to fostering the momentum of the RISC-V revolution.”
