Tenstorrent is pleased to share that it has invested in and partnered with Bodhi Computing as part of its ongoing commitment to India's Digital India RISC-V Program.
 
Tenstorrent AI and RISC-V-based server-grade computers are produced and sold by Bodhi Computing. The data centre, enterprise, HPC, telecom, and automotive markets in India will be the focus of Bodhi Computing. These Indian markets create a sizable opportunity for Bodhi Computing and Tenstorrent because they are predicted to grow significantly in the upcoming years. As strategic opportunities present themselves, Bodhi Computing will also opportunistically diversify into international markets. Sambit Sahu and Ragu Barathalwar, co-founders of Bodhi Computing and both seasoned professionals with a proven track record of technological leadership, will serve as its leaders.
 
"When I learned that the India's Ministry of Electronics and IT started the Digital India RISC-V program to launch India's first indigenous chipset by 2024, I knew that I wanted Tenstorrent to help," said Jim Keller, CEO of Tenstorrent. "Sambit and I have worked together for years, and he is the perfect person to lead Bodhi Computing as they build server-grade systems targeting key markets of growth in India."
 
The two businesses will work together to build software and systems for RISC-V and AI solutions as part of this investment and cooperation, and will also significantly contribute to the growth of the open source ecosystem. Jim Keller will join the board of directors for Bodhi Computing.
 
"Tenstorrent is an amazing company with best-in-class technologies in terms of PPA, scalability, expandability, TCO efficiency, and time-to-market efficiency in both AI/ML and RISC-V," said Sambit Sahu, CEO of Bodhi Computing. "Bringing great AI/ML and RISC-V technologies in the same package is going to be a key propeller for the 14 trillion dollar AI revolution that is being talked about. Tenstorrent has assembled an outstanding team, bringing in the who's who of the technology world together. It is an honor and privilege to be working so closely with such an outstanding team with some very cool technologies."
