Axelera AI together with Almawave Edge AI that speaks your language, wherever you are. That's what this partnership unlocks. Almawave, based in Rome and part of the Almaviva Group, has built Velvet, a family of multilingual large language models natively developed in Italy and available in 24 languages. We've signed a Memorandum of Understanding to bring those models to Axelera AI's enterprise edge hardware, starting with Metis. Velvet 2B is already available through the Voyager SDK model zoo today. Together, we're exploring optimization of multimodal workloads and joint go-to-market across smart cities, security, healthcare, telecommunications, and industrial applications. This partnership reflects something we believe in deeply: sovereign AI crafted in Europe, trusted by the world, running at the edge, tuned for real-world context. Almawave brings the multilingual intelligence. We bring the purpose-built hardware to run it efficiently where it matters. Multilingual. Multimodal. Built for the edge. #AxeleraAI #Almawave #EdgeAI #GenerativeAI #SovereignAI #LLM #EuropeanTech #DIMC #VoyagerSDK
