RISC-V hardware ecosystem gets strong industry support – Qualcomm joins with four other industry players to form Quintauris

Qualcomm and four other significant semiconductor firms have officially joined forces to establish Quintauris, a company focused on developing “next-generation hardware” based on the RISC-V open-standard architecture (via Business Wire). The self-stated mission of Quintauris is to provide a single source for enabling RISC-V devices and promote standards for the RISC-V industry, which has been criticized for being prone to fragmentation.
