Significant synergy as SoftBank is a major telco in Japan, and Ampere has been investing heavily into telco usecases like OpenRAN.

SoftBank is basically trying to own the entire RAN modernization stack - which is becoming a big part of what will become 6G.

Interesting times.

    Or that SoftBank owns Arm... and has very publicly said it wants to get into the full chip business, not just reference architecture.
