Qualcomm licenses Huawei's LogicFolding chip patents

Original: Qualcomm licenses patents on Huawei’s LogicFolding chip tech

Qualcomm has taken a license to patents covering Huawei's LogicFolding chip technology, per a Bloomberg report dated October 5, 2026. The deal marks a notable reversal in the standoff between the two companies, which have spent years on opposite sides of US-China semiconductor restrictions. It suggests Huawei's chip packaging innovations have become valuable enough that even its chief rival in mobile silicon is paying for access.

Why now: A leading US chip firm licensing technology from sanctioned Chinese rival Huawei is a striking shift in the semiconductor industry and US-China tech relations.
