[Book a meeting with us](https://calendly.com/gordan-markus/meet-canonical-risc-v-summit-na-booth-s7-clone) ## Canonical and Ubuntu’s expanding role in RISC-V’s future As RISC-V expands its footprint across industries, Canonical is accelerating this evolution with the newest Ubuntu 24.04 LTS release, designed for optimal performance on RISC-V platforms. Canonical is at the forefront of the RISC-V revolution. By enabling Ubuntu on multiple RISC-V boards and contributing to open source projects, Canonical strengthens the RISC-V ecosystem, driving adoption across industries like data center, IoT, and client computing. We ensure RISC-V developers have access to secure, scalable, and reliable operating systems, empowering them to innovate faster with Ubuntu. We are proud to collaborate with RISC-V partners to enable Ubuntu on various RISC-V use cases. We help accelerate the time-to-market by letting developers focus on their core applications without having to worry about the stability of the underlying operating system. This year we have collaborated with a myriad of partners in enabling their unique use cases: * [DeepComputing brings Ubuntu to the world’s first RISV-V laptop](https://canonical.com/blog/worlds-first-risc-v-laptop-gets-a-massive-upgrade-and-equips-with-ubuntu) * [Canonical Partners with Microchip to Bring Ubuntu to Microchip’s PIC64GX RISC-V® MPUs](https://canonical.com/blog/canonical-partners-with-microchip-to-bring-ubuntu-to-microchips-pic64gx-risc-v-mpus) * [Canonical enables Ubuntu on Milk-V Mars, a credit-card-sized RISC-V SBC](https://canonical.com/blog/canonical-enables-ubuntu-on-milk-v-mars) [Download Ubuntu images](https://ubuntu.com/download/risc-v) for your RISC-V boards now! ## Join our presentations If you’re keen to learn more about Ubuntu on RISC-V, be sure to join our presentation: Super-optimized Ubuntu and Open Source on RISC-V.
