+title: SOAFEE enters new chapter of open software collaboration as CoreCollective Working Group

+author: Robert Day,  Director of Go-To-Market, Physical AI, Arm
+except: CoreCollective welcomes SOAFEE as new Working Group, expanding opportunities in its core mission to advance open, cloud native software frameworks for software-defined and AI-defined vehicles.  
+---
+
+Physical AI is bringing advanced intelligence into the machines operating in the real world — from
+robots to next-generation vehicles. [AI-defined vehicles](https://newsroom.arm.com/blog/what-are-ai-defined-vehicles) are among the most advanced examples,
+integrating AI throughout the driving experience while significantly increasing software complexity.
+
+Addressing these software challenges was never intended to be the work of a single company.
+That’s why SOAFEE [(Scalable Open Architecture for Embedded Edge)](https://www.soafee.io/) was launched in 2021 as an
+open, industry initiative, bringing together automakers, silicon providers, cloud companies,
+software vendors, and open source communities to advance common software architectures for
+the future of automotive.
+
+As automotive software continues to evolve, SOAFEE is entering its next chapter as a Working
+Group within [CoreCollective](https://corecollective.dev/), the [recently launched](https://newsroom.arm.com/blog/introducing-corecollective) open collaboration initiative for the Arm
+software ecosystem. CoreCollective provides a common home for open source communities
+working across cloud, edge, physical AI – including automotive and robotics – and developer
+technologies, enabling projects to share governance, infrastructure, and technical expertise.
+
+### The next phase of open collaboration
+
+Since launching with 13 founding members, SOAFEE has grown to more than 150 organizations,
+advancing practical cloud-native automotive software through member-led [Blueprints](https://www.soafee.io/blog/). That
+mission remains unchanged.
+
+As a dedicated CoreCollective working group, SOAFEE members will be able to:
+
+* Collaborate across multiple communities, industries, and technologies to address
+common challenges;
+* Benefit from access to shared infrastructure, governance, and operational support; and
+* Continue developing technologies that differentiate for their own automotive solutions.
+
+SOAFEE will retain its existing governance, including its Governing Body, Technical Steering
+Committee, Blueprint program, and regional activities, including the APAC Hub, while gaining a
+seat on the CoreCollective Technical Advisory Committee.
+
+Arm will continue as an active technical contributor and governing member. I’m pleased to be
+taking the role of SOAFEE Working Group Chair, with my colleague John Penn representing the
+Working Group on the CoreCollective Technical Advisory Committee. There will also be other
+member companies supporting a variety of roles in the SOAFEE Working Group. We look forward to
+representing Arm in driving open collaboration while ensuring SOAFEE remains industry-led.
+
+Get involved in CoreCollective and SOAFEE
+As AI continues to reshape how intelligent machines are built, deployed, continuously improved,
+automotive is one of the leading examples of physical AI in action. By becoming a CoreCollective
+Working Group, SOAFEE is expanding its community, strengthening collaboration across adjacent
+industries, and continuing to advance the open, cloud native approach to software it was founded
+to support.
+
+Existing and new SOAFEE members can participate through CoreCollective's open membership
+model. CoreCollective is free for any company interested in collaborating with others to help
+developers accelerate the building, testing, and deployment of workloads on Arm.
