Arm loses licensing dispute with Qualcomm
Qualcomm has won a lawsuit against Arm, a US District Court dismissing the remaining claim in Arm's lawsuit and upholding the result of a December 2024 trial. The court ruled that Qualcomm and its subsidiary Nuvia did not violate their licensing agreement with Arm. Arm had sued Qualcomm after it purchased Nuvia, arguing that Qualcomm did not obtain the necessary permits to transfer Nuvia's licenses, and in 2024, Arm canceled the architecture license allowing Qualcomm to use its intellectual property. Qualcomm said its "right to innovate prevailed," and it is looking forward to a trial for its own lawsuit against Arm, accusing the company of breach of contract and a "pattern of conduct seeking to hinder innovation and better position [its] own products over its long-standing partners'." Arm, however, remains confident in its position and plans to file an appeal to overturn the court's decision.
