## Key takeaways

- Semidynamics and Nokia Explore will assess, test, validate and where appropriate integrate Semidynamics' AI accelerators and liquid-cooled racks with Nokia's Data Center Fabric solutions.
- Semidynamics will evaluate Nokia's networking technologies for its AI inference racks.
- Semidynamics CEO Roger Espasa said working with Nokia gives the company a framework to advance its memory-centric inference platform alongside networking for large AI infrastructure.

Semidynamics and Nokia Explore will assess, test, validate and, where appropriate, integrate Semidynamics' RISC-V-based AI accelerators and liquid-cooled racks with Nokia's Data Center Fabric networking solutions, the companies said in an announcement published by [EIN Presswire](https://www.einnews.com/pr_news/953077319/semidynamics-and-nokia-explore-collaboration-to-strengthen-europe-s-sovereign-ai-capabilities) on October 29, 2026. The work is intended to support European sovereign AI infrastructure.

## How the Semidynamics and Nokia Evaluation Works

Under the collaboration, [Semidynamics](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/0006xst/semidynamics) will evaluate [Nokia](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00000gp/nokia)'s networking technologies and related solutions for its AI inference racks. Semidynamics is developing proprietary RISC-V-based AI inference technology and integrated systems, while Nokia supplies AI-optimized networking that connects computing systems within data centers. The companies said the work will help assess the feasibility of integrated solutions and inform potential joint technical and commercial propositions.

For organizations developing sovereign AI infrastructure, the intended value is a broader base of technology expertise and potential options for future deployments, according to the announcement. Semidynamics is headquartered in Barcelona and has a team of more than 200 engineers and specialists, the company said.

"Europe's AI ambitions need European technology that can be deployed at scale," said Roger Espasa, CEO of Semidynamics. "Working with Nokia gives us a framework to advance our memory-centric inference platform alongside the networking needed for large AI infrastructure."

Matthieu Bourguignon, Senior Vice-President for Network Infrastructure Europe at Nokia, said: "Through this agreement, we will explore how computing and connectivity can work together to support organizations developing sovereign AI infrastructure with trusted technologies."

## Semidynamics' Prior European AI Partnerships

According to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Semidynamics formed a strategic partnership with SiPearl in May 2026 to deliver a European rack-scale AI compute platform combining SiPearl's Arm-based Rhea2 CPU with Semidynamics' RISC-V AI inference ASIC, targeting AI Factory and Giga Factory procurement. The same records show a strategic investment from SK hynix in April 2026 to co-develop a memory-centric AI inference architecture optimized with next-generation memory technologies for LLM and long-context workloads. Semidynamics has secured €45 million in total funding, including €38.58 million in non-dilutive European and Spanish public innovation funding.

## Earlier Semidynamics Sovereign AI Moves

In May 2026, SiPearl and Semidynamics announced a partnership to build a European sovereign rack-scale AI platform using SiPearl's Arm Neoverse V2-based Rhea2 CPUs and Semidynamics' RISC-V AI inference accelerators, Eetimes reported. In June 2026, Semidynamics said it would present its memory-centric AI inference platform at ISC HPC 2026, featuring a RISC-V core and Gazzillion memory subsystem, and that it had taped out its first 3nm chip in December 2025 with a production tape-out planned later this year, EIN Presswire reported. In August 2026, InfiniNode said it received funding from the Swedish Energy Agency to validate its interconnect technology with partner Semidynamics, with early results showing double-digit energy savings, according to LinkedIn.
