Nvidia has announced a major partnership with the South Korean government and top companies to strengthen the country’s artificial intelligence capabilities by supplying hundreds of thousands of its advanced GPUs.
Silicon Valley chipmaker Nvidia will provide around 260,000 graphics processing units to support South Korea’s AI development, manufacturing, and infrastructure projects.
The plan, unveiled on Friday, involves cooperation with Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Hyundai Motor following a meeting between President Lee Jae Myung and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.
About 50,000 GPUs will be allocated to a government-led national cloud computing center for AI, while Samsung and SK Hynix will each receive the same amount to improve chip manufacturing and semiconductor research.
Hyundai and Nvidia will also collaborate on self-driving technologies, robotics, and smart factories using Nvidia’s latest Blackwell GPUs.
Huang, who received a celebrity-like welcome during his visit to South Korea, praised the country’s potential to lead in the AI era.
