> partnership · REPORTED · 2026-06-15

Reported in mid-June 2026, Samsung Foundry has initiated R&D on Neuralink's fourth-generation implant chip using a 4nm process, marking the first direct manufacturing partnership between the two companies and shifting production away from TSMC. The new chip is designed for bidirectional brain-computer communication; test samples are expected in H1 2027 with mass production potentially in late 2027.

About Neuralink: Neuralink develops implantable brain-computer interface devices designed to help people with paralysis and neurological conditions control digital devices using thought, with ongoing human trials and ambitions for high-volume production in 2026.
