 # News 
 
+* 🎉 **TII has just released a new generation of models, starting with Falcon2-11B**, a 11B parameters causal decoder-only model and trained over 5,000B tokens of [RefinedWeb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb) enhanced with curated corpora. The model is made available under the [TII Falcon License 2.0](https://falconllm-staging.tii.ae/falcon-2-terms-and-conditions.html), the permissive Apache 2.0-based software license which includes an [acceptable use policy](https://falconllm-staging.tii.ae/falcon-2-acceptable-use-policy.html) that promotes the responsible use of AI.
 * 💥 **TII has open-sourced Falcon-180B for research and commercial utilization!** Access the [180B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180b), as well as [7B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b)/[40B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-40b) models, and explore our high-quality web dataset, [RefinedWeb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb). 
 * ✨ **Falcon-[40B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-40b)/[7B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b) are now available under the Apache 2.0 license**, TII has [waived all royalties and commercial usage restrictions](https://www.tii.ae/news/uaes-falcon-40b-worlds-top-ranked-ai-model-technology-innovation-institute-now-royalty-free).
+# Falcon2 LLM
+
+Falcon2 LLM is TII's new flagship series of large language models, where we focused on building smaller models with enhanced performance to enable cheaper inference that can encourage the development of more downstream applications and improve the general usability of our models. More models and papers coming soon 😊.
