2026 RISC-V Taipei Day

Where AI Meets Open Inference

2026 marks a pivotal inflection point as RISC-V evolves from an open-standard architecture into a mainstream platform for AI inference. With the ratification of the RVA23 standard and the maturation of Vector Extensions (RVV 1.0), RISC-V has moved beyond early adoption, demonstrating strong competitiveness across Edge AI, industrial automation, smart cockpit systems, and customized inference servers.

The 2026 RISC-V Taipei Day forum will spotlight key technical milestones and the structural evolution of the ecosystem, examining how RISC-V leverages deep customization and superior performance-per-watt to outperform traditional architectures in Transformer workloads. Industry leaders—including Andes Technology, DeepComputing, Semidynamics, StarFive, RISC-V International, and the RISE (RISC-V Software Ecosystem) Project—will join together and share the latest advancements spanning AI inference chips to the global software ecosystem.

In addition to the full-day RISC-V Taipei Day forum, the RISC-V Taiwan Alliance will host a four-day RISC-V Pavilion during COMPUTEX 2026, showcasing end-to-end technical solutions. Through this integrated program of high-level forum and curated technology showcases, the initiative will explore the convergence of AI and open-standard inference, driving industry innovation and expanding global ecosystem collaboration.

We cordially invite you to witness the golden era of open architectures, where RISC-V’s unparalleled flexibility enables algorithm-level innovation to translate directly into hardware optimization, redefining the economics of AI computing.

Welcome Keynote:
RISC-V Now for Taiwan and the World

Frankwell Lin｜Chairman, RISC-V Taiwan Alliance | Chairman and CEO, Andes Technology

Taiwan is in the center of semiconductor, chip, IT, system design and manufacturing industries. From TSMC, Mediatek to Asus to Foxconn, In this presentation, RISC-V International (RVI) effort and achievement will be reviewed, RISC-V is mature and strong for semiconductor electronic microsystem, which mostly are made in the form of chips,. Since chip manufacturing is the strength of Taiwan, so RISC-V already started to contribute to Taiwan industry and society. AI becomes so important, the way of using RISC-V to design AI application system will be suggested. Especially for edge AI, inferencing devices shall be the strength to Taiwan’s chip design and ICT industry in near future. Action taken to speed up audiences’ organization in adapting RISC-V based solution is suggested. General purpose application processing leveraging RISC-V are trend of applications for ADAS, robot, humanroid, automotive application, handheld platform and wearable devices, the skill to do these will also be covered in this speech. As a summary, RISC-V for now, its strength, superiority, and mass production proof have proven its maturity that may help Taiwan and the World to move faster, more reliable, and more successful.

Keynote: Inventing the new Era of Computing with RISC-V

Andrea Gallo | CEO, RISC-V International

The power of computing is changing the world at an ever accelerating pace, with revolutionary capabilities in AI giving us new ways of interacting with information, knowledge, and the real world around us. Each new era of computing gives huge potential for previously unimaginable new products, services and businesses, but delivering on the full promise of AI requires new architectures and capabilities, and for us to think about computing in new ways. In this talk we will outline how the RISC-V open standard underpins this new future of computing in both the virtual and the real world. We will discuss the how the design freedom enabled by RISC-V unlocks an approach to innovation not previously possible, how RISC-V enables hardware and software development as one optimized process rather than two, and also the developments in the standard that will underpin the future, across AI in the datacenter, on your personal devices, and in the physical AI, robotic and mobility applications we will rely on and start to take for granted. Come to this session to discover how RISC-V can deliver your next era of computing.
