AI Boom Fuels Foxconn’s $1.4 Billion GPU Megaproject In Taiwan

Via X

Foxconn announced that its $1.4 billion supercomputing center, built in partnership with Nvidia, will be operational by the first half of 2026, Reuters reported. The 27-megawatt facility will be Taiwan’s largest GPU cluster and Asia’s first data center powered by Nvidia’s new Blackwell GB300 chips.

Neo Yao, head of Foxconn’s new AI unit Visonbay.ai, said the project underscores the shift toward large-scale, shared compute infrastructure.

Nvidia executives backed that view, arguing that renting high-powered GPU resources offers stronger returns as AI demand surges.

Foxconn has become Nvidia’s top manufacturer of AI server racks, positioning the company as a major winner in the global data center boom.

Chairman Young Liu said Foxconn plans to invest $2–3 billion annually in AI and can now produce 1,000 AI racks per week.

The company also showcased its “Model A” electric vehicle as it pushes deeper into EV manufacturing.
