Nvidia’s mega chip facility in Mexico will be built by Foxconn
Senior leaders of the Taiwanese business said on Tuesday that Foxconn is constructing the largest facility in the world in Mexico to produce Nvidia’s GB200 superchips, which are a crucial part of the U.S. company’s next-generation Blackwell family computer platform.
As it assembles servers needed to perform AI workloads, Foxconn, the largest contract electronics manufacturer in the world and the company behind Apple’s iPhone assembly line, has profited from the emergence of artificial intelligence.
After making design adjustments, Nvidia said in August that it had started sending Blackwell samples to partners and customers and that it anticipated generating multibillion-dollar profits from these chips by the end of the fourth quarter.
Foxconn President Young Liu later told the media that the facility was being built in Mexico and would have «very, very huge» capacity. He did not provide any further information.
