ARM’s growth history

Milestones in ARM’s development 1

●ARM, formerly known as Acorn Computer, was founded in Cambridge, England, in 1978.
●In the late 1980s, Apple Computer began to cooperate with Aiken Computer to develop a new version of the ARM core.
●In 1985, the world’s first commercial RISC processor, ARM1, was developed.
●In 1990, Aikon Computer was in financial crisis. With investments from Apple and VLSI, it spun off Advanced, an independent subsidiary.
RISC Machines (ARM), ARM company was officially established.

This photo is ARM’s first partner conference. It was less than a year before ARM became independent. The third from the right is Sir Robin Saxby, ARM CEO at the time and former IET chairman. The first one on the right is ARMMCTO Mike Muller. This former HP employee joined ARM as the head of system architecture and has been serving as CTO since October 2000. Sitting opposite them are ARM’s three investors from Acorn, Apple and VLSI.
