Nuvia, a startup created by Apple alumni, was acquired by Qualcomm In January 2021. Originally, it was about developing ARM architecture chips for servers, but the new owner wants to cross swords with Apple and the M1 chip in consumer products. A month after the acquisition of Novia, Cristiano Amon did not hide his ambitions:

Qualcomm is promising a chip as powerful as the M1 for Mac, with previous Apple help

It must be said that Qualcomm’s previous attempts at the ARM chipset segment for Windows have given mixed results, to say the least, including with models developed with Microsoft (SQ1 and SQ2 for the Surface X). A far cry anyway from the performance of M1-equipped Macs.
