On May 27, 2026, The Register reported that Broadcom's custom ASIC business has landed South Korea's FuriosaAI as a partner to develop next-generation AI inference chips (source). The partnership is confirmed on FuriosaAI's official site, which states they will collaborate on a next-generation inference platform for the 'Agentic Era' (source). This signals a design win for Furiosa, leveraging Broadcom's advanced ASIC capabilities to scale its tensor contraction processor architecture. The deal likely accelerates Furiosa's go-to-market and adds credibility to its RNGD inference chip. For the AI infrastructure supply chain, this partnership introduces a new custom chip contender, potentially increasing competition for NVIDIA and other inference accelerators.
