Qualcomm has renewed its global licensing agreement with Apple, with the new terms set to take effect on 1 April 2027. The deal means Apple can continue using Qualcomm chip technology, including modem components, under license. The renewal ends speculation about a possible split between the two companies after earlier licensing disputes and Apple's moves to develop its own modem hardware.

Why now: The extension secures a key supply and licensing relationship between two major tech companies well beyond the current agreement's expiry.
