Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang inaugurated Silicon Products’ new factory in Taiwan. On his first visit to Taichung, Huang talked about expanding cooperation on new-generation AI technology, the Blackwell platform, and the advanced packaging process CoWoS-L.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang arrived at Taichung’s Qingchuang Airport today and toured Silicon Products’ new plant. This was his first visit to Taichung, where he met with the company’s Chairman Chai Chiwen. Addressing the media, Huang shared Nvidia’s future plans and growing cooperation with Taiwan.
27-year relationship with Silicon Products
Huang said that Nvidia and Silicon Products have a 27-year-old relationship. He said, “This is my first time in Taichung and it is a great pleasure for me to attend the inauguration of the new silicon products factory.”
Move towards CoWoS-L technology
Huang mentioned the new generation technology of Nvidia’s Blackwell AI platform on this occasion. He said that the company is now moving from CoWoS-S advanced packaging process to CoWoS-L, which is a more complex and high-level technology. This advancement will not only make Nvidia’s products better, but it will also be further developed in collaboration with Taiwanese partner TSMC.
Huang’s statement: “Nvidia is committed to further strengthening its cooperation with Taiwan. Our partnership with TSMC and other partners will play an important role in enhancing Blackwell’s production capacity.”
Possibility of setting up headquarters in Taiwan?
On the media’s question whether Nvidia will set up its overseas headquarters in Taiwan, Huang clarified that this decision has not been taken yet. He said, “We need a larger operating unit, but it is not yet decided whether it will be in Taipei or Taichung.”
Celebrating Lunar New Year and meeting partners
During this visit, Huang is going to celebrate Lunar New Year with Nvidia employees in Taiwan. Apart from this, he will meet TSMC founder Zhang Zhongmou, Chairman Wei Zejia, and other key partners. During this, he will also interact with representatives of supply chain companies like Quanta and Hon Hai.
Special Note: This visit of Nvidia will further deepen the technological partnership between Taiwan and the company. Advanced artificial intelligence technology through the Blackwell platform and CoWoS-L process will not only give Nvidia an edge in the competition, but will also strengthen Taiwan’s technological identity globally.
This visit of Huang has given rise to many speculations not only from a business perspective but also in terms of Nvidia’s future plans in Taiwan. Experts believe that if Nvidia sets up its headquarters in Taiwan, it will be a major milestone for Taiwan’s technological development.
