Nvidia CEO Secures Critical Chip Supply Amid Surging AI Demand
14 Nov
Summary
- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang meets with TSMC executives to secure more wafers
- Nvidia expects AI demand to remain exceptionally strong
- Nvidia is the world's most valuable company with a $4.69 trillion market cap
In a move that underscores the accelerating AI boom, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang traveled to Taiwan last month to meet with top executives at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), Nvidia's most critical manufacturing partner. Huang's mission was clear: to secure more wafers, the foundational building blocks of advanced chips, to support Nvidia's next-generation AI lineup.
This request carries major implications. Nvidia, the world's most valuable company with a $4.69 trillion market cap, is racing to lock in chip supply before competitors can, as the company expects AI demand to remain exceptionally strong. By personally flying out to Taiwan, Huang is sending a strong signal that the AI surge is far from slowing down—it's actually accelerating.
