San Mateo, Calif. and Cambridge, UK, SiFive, Inc., the founder and leader of RISC-V computing, announces the opening of its new UK Research & Development (R&D) Centre headquartered in Cambridge, United Kingdom. SiFive is committed to hiring more than 100 new employees across many roles and positions. This is an exciting opportunity for local Cambridge talent to be part of SiFive's founding team in the UK, to make an impact today, and define the technologies of tomorrow.

"Overseas investment supports jobs and boosts local economies across the UK, playing an important role in this government's Levelling Up agenda. SiFive's UK expansion is both a strong example of this and a major vote of confidence in our thriving $1 trillion tech sector, cementing the UK as a tech and science superpower," said Minister for Investment, Lord Grimstone. "This investment is a fantastic opportunity to be part of SiFive's growing team in the UK and work alongside the co-creators of RISC-V, and is a great compliment to the UK and its future."

"Our workforce has some of the brightest minds in technology and our region is a dynamic, exciting place to do business. I'm delighted to see more world-class technology companies – such as SiFive – drawn to Cambridge to open new research centers and support jobs and opportunity in our region and for our communities. Once again our dedicated Growth Works inward investment service has played an important role in helping another globally competitive tech company choose our region as a place to invest," said Dr Nik Johnson, Mayor of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.
