Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – 30 October 2025: Epic Semi announced the launch of its Saudi-rooted semiconductor portfolio at the EpicSemi Launch and Celebratory Event held yesterday at Hilton Riyadh Hotel & Residences. Bringing together government stakeholders, technology leaders, investors and media, the event showcased EPIC Semi’s partner-first, full-stack EPIC portfolio designed for AI infrastructure, smart city, and smart manufacturing use cases-advancing Saudi Arabia’s technological independence and export ambitions.
Dr. Naveed Sherwani, Chief Executive Officer, EPIC Semi, said: “Today marks a pivotal step in building a sovereign, globally competitive semiconductor ecosystem in Saudi Arabia. With our EPIC portfolio of Edge AI, Physical AI, IoT and Cloud AI solutions and a partner-first model, we are enabling AI-from the cloud to the edge-while creating new opportunities for startups, scale-ups and global players to innovate here in the Kingdom.”
A first for the Kingdom: Local content, partner ecosystem, full stack
Product Portfolio: Epic’s extensive AI chip and solution portfolio addresses four critical market segments:
Tiered, low-latency inference that lives where your data is born—factory lines, smart cities, and energy sites. Scale from single node to fleet without changing the control stack.
Computer vision, reasoning, planning, and actuation for robots and autonomous systems. From inspection to pick-and-place, Pegasus turns intent into safe, smooth motion.
Deterministic device connectivity through cellular, WiFi/BLE or power line communications, with secure telemetry, and over-the-air control.
Rich portfolio of modern CPU compute, AI accelerations, data center interconnect, memory and storage, and liquid cooling, to support state of the art AI infrastructure build-out at rack scale.
New Products Unleashed:
EPIC Contrail is our cloud-scale portfolio engineered to drive $/token, J/token, and ms/token down for AI training and inference.
High-performance, dense-capacity, power-efficient NVMe drives optimized for AI workloads (checkpoints, datasets, vector DBs).
A compute platform designed for high concurrency and memory bandwidth, tuned for AI services to run LLMs such as DeepSeek, LLaMA.
Rack-scale liquid-cooling (CDU/CDX options) to enable higher power densities with lower PUE and quieter ops. Engineered for reliability, easy service, and rapid deployment across new builds and retrofits.
With more than US$550 billion invested in national flagship projects such as NEOM and technology zones, Saudi Arabia’s semiconductor sector-driven by Epic Semi and the National Semiconductor Hub-is positioned to create tens of thousands of high-skill jobs and support regional leadership in the industry – an opportunity Epic Semi intends to serve with a KSA-rooted, globally scaled product portfolio. .
