Nvidia is planning to build Taiwan’s first AI supercomputer while deepening partnerships with local heavyweights Foxconn and TSMC, as tariffs test global supply chains. The maker of artificial-intelligence chips announced the move at industry conference Computex on Monday in Taipei, among a flurry of rollouts including a product for companies to build semicustom chips.
Nvidia said it will develop the AI supercomputer with Foxconn Technology Group and the Taiwan government to support researchers and enterprises. Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer, will provide the AI infrastructure, while Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. researchers plan to use the system to advance research and development.
By building this AI factory with Nvidia and TSMC, we are laying the groundwork to connect people in Taiwan as well as government organizations and enterprises, Young Liu, chairman and CEO of Foxconn, said in a statement. Nvidia also expanded partnerships with system manufacturers in Taiwan, including Acer and Asus, with which it will build new high-performance desktop supercomputers.
In his keynote address at Computex, Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang said the company is planning a new hub in Taiwan, calling it an ideal nexus for AI advancement. The AI giant’s push in Taiwan come as the industry weighs developments around U.S. tariffs that threaten supply chains. It stands to reason that Taiwan [is] at the center of the most advanced industry, the epicenter where AI and robotics is going to come from, Huang said. This is also the largest electronics manufacturing region in the world.
