Graphcore is a British semiconductor company founded in Bristol in 2016 that designs the Intelligence Processing Unit, a processor architected specifically for machine learning rather than adapted from graphics. Its chips place large amounts of memory directly on the die and expose fine-grained parallelism, an approach aimed at sparse and irregular models that map poorly onto conventional accelerators. The company sells IPU systems and the Poplar software stack to research and enterprise customers, and has operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of SoftBank Group since its acquisition in 2024.

Nexperia is a Dutch semiconductor company created in 2017 when NXP separated its standard products division, and it makes the discrete transistors, diodes, logic devices and power management chips that appear in almost every electronic product. These are high-volume, low-price parts shipped in the tens of billions annually, where the competitive question is manufacturing cost and supply reliability rather than design sophistication. Headquartered in Nijmegen and owned by the Chinese group Wingtech, it has been at the centre of European and British government interventions over foreign ownership of semiconductor capacity.
