The China RISC-V Industry Consortium was founded in Zhangjiang area, Shanghai on Sept 20.

RISC-V is an open instruction set architecture (ISA) based on established reduced instruction set computing (RISC) principles, which is significant because it is designed to be useful in a wide range of devices.

Initiated by key enterprises, research institutes, and industry organizations in the RISC-V sector, the consortium is expected to integrate domestic innovative forces to increase the influence of Chinese companies  in the sector.

It will build exchange platforms for the industry to promote the application of RISC-V, facilitate a RISC-V talent cultivation plan in universities, advance cooperation among its members, and strengthen international cooperation.
