Since joining the Eclipse Foundation in December, the OpenHW Foundation has significantly advanced its mission to develop, verify, and deliver high quality, open source RISC-V processor cores and related IP for commercial and industrial applications – and we’ve got some exciting announcements to share in the coming months.

OSCAFest 2025

Open Source Community Africa is a community aimed at creating and supporting the open source movement within Africa. As a community, we intend to help integrate the act of open source contribution to African developers whilst strongly advocating the movement of free and open source software.

RISC-V Summit China 2025

The 5th RISC-V Summit China will take place at Zhangjiang Science Hall in Shanghai from 16-19 July 2025. The summit will feature a main forum, 8 vertical industry sub-forums, multiple workshops, concurrent events, and a 4,500-square-meter Future Tech Exhibition Zone. Anticipated to draw over 1,000 on-site professionals and generate 500,000+ online views through live streams and replays, this convergence will bring together more than 100 enterprises, research institutions, and open-source technology communities.

This event brings together experts, engineers, and researchers to explore the latest innovations, applications, and challenges of RISC-V architecture in the space sector.

The event, organised by the European Space Agency and Frontgrade Gaisler in collaboration with RISC-V International, with the participation of the OpenHW Foundation, will take place on 2-3 April 2025 in Gothenburg, Sweden.

COSCUP 2024 - Open Source Inspired Hardware (and their happy friends)

At the COSCUP 2024 our OpenHW Group Flo will be onside and present at Open Source Inspired Hardware (and their happy friends) for TR611 the topic "RISC-V Cores in industrial quality and Open Source" make sure to join COSCUP, hang out, talk with others and bring everything forward together! Free admission, but feel free to take the survey of the Homepage to support the organizers!

Verification Futures Conference 2024 Austin - Accelerate your adoption of RISC-V with CORE-V-VERIF

Mike Thompson will speak about how to Accelerate your adoption of RISC-V with CORE-V-VERIF.

CORE-V-VERIF is an open source project supported by the OpenHW Group. Its goal is to provide an open-source environment and workflow that can be deployed into any RISC-V processor core. Since December 2020, OpenHW Group members have successfully used CORE-V-VERIF for end-to-end verification of more than six RISC-V cores.
