The chief executive of Nvidia will open the Computex technology conference in Taiwan on Monday with an extensive presentation focused on artificial intelligence, where he’s anticipated to discuss his company’s newest product developments and Taiwan’s crucial position in the tech sector.
The leader of the $5 trillion semiconductor company, a Taiwan native from the southern city of Tainan, revealed intentions last week to put roughly $150 billion per year into Taiwan, calling it the center of the AI transformation.
The presentation is scheduled to start at 11 a.m. (0300 GMT) at the Taipei Music Hall. This appearance follows approximately two weeks after he joined U.S. President Donald Trump on a trip to Beijing as part of a high-profile business group to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping.
The executive, who enjoys celebrity-like popularity in Taiwan, is anticipated to discuss Nvidia’s AI processors, software programs and computing systems. Focus will likely center on the company’s data center offerings, including its latest Vera Rubin AI computing platform and Vera central processing unit (CPU), along with its work in areas like robotics and self-driving vehicles.
Nvidia is also constructing a Taiwan headquarters that’s planned to begin operations in 2030. This facility will position the company nearer to important supplier TSMC, which produces many of the sophisticated semiconductors that power AI technology.
One possible discussion topic involves Nvidia’s work, as reported by Reuters in 2023, to create an Arm-based PC processor that would compete with Intel and Advanced Micro Devices. Processors require approximately two years to develop and the CEO has stated that the central processors, or CPUs, are optimized for consumer devices featuring AI capabilities.
During last month’s quarterly earnings report, the executive sought to reassure investors that Nvidia could sustain its rapid expansion. He indicated that a broad range of clients and new products would help the company exceed the approximately $1 trillion in revenue it has projected for its primary AI processors.
Computex is projected to draw 1,500 exhibitors from 33 nations worldwide. Chief executives from Intel and Qualcomm are also scheduled to present speeches at the technology conference.
