A thousand years ago, civilization fought over food. A few hundred years ago, it fought over energy. Today, the world is fighting over compute. That is why NextSilicon exists. youtube.com/watch?v=u9fNR8… @mikeeisenberg | @aleph | @NextSilicon

Technology and innovation were at the center of the second panel of the Pupin Connectivity and Investment Forum 2026, which opened a discussion on new opportunities for cooperation among Serbia, the United States, and Israel. The discussion featured H.E. Avivit Bar-Ilan, @IsraelinSerbia , @awheldon , Founder and Managing Partner of Charles Square Ventures, @vkm , Principal Director at Google AI, @elad_raz , CEO of Next Silicon, and @DraženŠumić, Director of Microsoft Development Center Serbia, and was moderated by Kosta Andrić of ICT Hub. The panel showed that Serbia has strong technological potential, high-quality engineering talent, and growing importance as a platform for partnerships in AI, digital infrastructure, and innovation. At the same time, it was emphasized that the next leap forward will depend on greater access to capital, support for entrepreneurship, and the further strengthening of the innovation ecosystem. 🇷🇸🇺🇸 Технологија и иновације биле су у средишту другог панела Pupin Connectivity and Investment Forum-а 2026, који је отворио разговор о новим могућностима сарадње између Србије, Сједињених Држава и Израела. У разговору су учествовали Авивит Бар-Илан, амбасадорка Израела у Србији, Алекс Велдон, оснивач и управљачки партнер Charles Square Ventures, Владимир Милошевић, Principal Director у Google AI, Елад Раз, CEO компаније Next Silicon, и Дражен Шумић, директор Microsoft Development Center Serbia, док је модератор био Коста Андрић из ICT Hub-а. Панел је показао да Србија има снажан технолошки потенцијал, квалитетан инжењерски кадар и све већи значај као платформа за партнерства у области AI, дигиталне инфраструктуре и иновација. Истовремено, истакнуто је да ће за следећи искорак бити кључни већи приступ капиталу, подршка предузетништву и даље јачање иновационог екосистема.

הקלטתי ראיון קצת אחר. לא עוד שיחה על שבבים, אלא על הרגע שבו מבינים שהעתיד שאנחנו מדמיינים דורש תשתית חדשה לגמרי. דיברנו על 8200, מלנוקס, שמונה שנים של בניית שבבים, עצמאות טכנולוגית לישראל, ולמה הדברים הכי קשים הם לפעמים גם הכי כיפיים. וגם קצת על קפה. youtube.com/watch?v=sZdMby…

Happy #PiDay 🥧 Our Israel Mavericks held a “Say Pi, Get Pie” challenge - reciting digits of π from memory. 🏆 Congratulations to Elad Shliselberg who took 1st place with 108 digits! Watch the contest 👇

Vladimir Milosevic, Verification Manager at NextSilicon, joins Pojačalo Podcast, talking about our software-defined hardware approach and how it powers the #Maverick2 accelerator and the Arbel #RISCv core. A great conversation on rethinking HPC architecture. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=hq-Ti9…

אין דבר יותר פרודקטיבי לעשות בממ״ד מאשר להריץ אייג׳נטים 😉

Last month, Oded Margalit and Ilan Tayari represented NextSilicon at the #ODISSEE Annual Meeting at @CERN . Together with partners across #Europe, we’re tackling exabyte-scale data challenges - advancing next-gen, data-intensive computing and strengthening Europe’s HPC sovereignty ⚡ Read more 👇 nextsilicon.com/insights/elads…

@FelixCLC_ You can get access to the full Spectra machine 😉 jobs@nextsilicon.com

Still waiting on the dev kit @elad_raz!

Cool people working with cool people. The work NS is doing continues to fascinate me

@PatrickMoorhead @NextSilicon @SandiaLabs @Chilldyne. Their tech is on another level.

@elad_raz @NextSilicon @SandiaLabs I’ve never seen that kind of liquid cooling before.

Steel. Power. Flow. No hype. Just racks. Not the biggest system. Maybe the most interesting. This is how the future of compute gets built. @NextSilicon | @SandiaLabs

Redefining Compute from the Silicon Up NextSilicon’s Co-Founder & VP of Architecture Ilan Tayari talks with @IanCutress about our Intelligent Compute Architecture and the journey behind #Maverick2, pushing the boundaries of what compute can be. 🚀 Watch the full video: 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=FYoCqE…

When breakthrough science meets breakthrough computing, real change happens. ⚡ Proud to see our collaboration with @Sandialabs & @weare_penguin on accelerating Spectra highlighted! Read the full article here 👇 sandia.gov/labnews/2026/0…

2025 was the year we stopped talking and started proving. Grace Hopper ran a backward clock to kill “We’ve always done it this way”. I keep one too. Same reason. That’s @NextSilicon . Dataflow over Von Neumann. Software-defined hardware over fixed pipelines. Real silicon. Real workloads. Real proof. 👉 nextsilicon.com/insights/elads…

2025 was a breakout year for NextSilicon. From global recognition and real-world HPC deployments to bold compute innovations, we continually pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. A big thank you to our team, partners, and community. See you in 2026.

First run. Default settings. Customer: “Looks like ~60×.” That’s the @NextSilicon Maverick moment. Lights off, compute on — Maverick is reshaping the game.

Happy holidays & Hanukkah from NextSilicon! From Commodore 64 nostalgia to reimagined compute architectures. Ugly sweater spirit, HPC mindset. 640K was never enough. Even Microsoft can’t get one. Including me :)

Seven years in stealth. One big launch. Sat down with @addisonsnell at SC25 to talk about @NextSilicon, Maverick-2, dataflow architecture, FP64 vs FP4, real HPC benchmarks, and why we built something fundamentally different instead of chasing GPUs. This is about accelerating science first, and letting everything else follow. Go watch. It’s worth your time. youtube.com/watch?v=ZEHBHZ…

Wishing all our friends a very happy Hanukkah!

SC25 was a shift. Recognition, community, and proof that our architecture resonates. Next year our roadmap takes a very big step forward. Story: nextsilicon.com/insights/elads… @NextSilicon | #Maverick
