Graphcore has created a new processor, the Intelligence Processing Unit (IPU), specifically designed for artificial intelligence. The IPU’s unique architecture means developers can run current machine learning models orders of magnitude faster. More importantly, it lets AI researchers undertake entirely new types of work, not possible using current technologies, to drive the next great breakthroughs in general machine intelligence.
Our next generation 3D Wafer-on-Wafer Bow IPU systems are helping AI innovators worldwide to build better, more innovative AI solutions, whether their focus is on language and vision, exploring graph neural networks and LSTMs or creating something entirely new.
We believe our IPU technology will become the worldwide standard for artificial intelligence compute. The performance of Graphcore’s IPU is going to be transformative across all industries and sectors whether you are a medical researcher, roboticist or building autonomous cars.
Our team is at the forefront of the artificial intelligence revolution, enabling innovators from all industries and sectors to expand human potential with technology. What we do, really makes a difference.
Were always interested in hearing from exceptional people to join our team.

Since May 2019, EpiGaN has become a business unit of Soitec. For more information about Soitec’s GaN product solutions, please visit the Soitec webpage at https://www.soitec.com/en/products/gan-epitaxial-wafers.
With EpiGaN’s acquisition in May 2019, Soitec confirmed its ambition to further extend its portfolio beyond silicon. GaN technologies which are gaining significant traction in RF and power markets, represent a natural strategic fit with Soitec’s current portfolio of engineered substrates. Targeting the base stations power amplifiers market in the first place, Soitec also aims to penetrate the smartphones and power automotive markets with GaN products later on. Offering a comprehensive portfolio of silicon and non-silicon based engineered substrates, Soitec is well-positioned to support 5G deployment which is expected to be a strong growth lever. Operating as one of the company’s business units for over a year now and benefiting from Soitec’s global manufacturing footprint and exposure, the EpiGaN BU is offering its customers access to a worldwide sales and support team network.
EpiGaN has become Soitec Belgium
The integration of the business unit has gone one step further last month with a name change. Since June 1st, 2020, EpiGaN N.V has changed its name to Soitec Belgium N.V. and has embraced Soitec’s visual identity, allowing the BU to fully reap the benefits of the Group's ecosystem.
