NVIDIA is partnering with major manufacturers to build AI supercomputers entirely within the United States for the first time. The company has initiated projects to develop factories in Arizona and Texas, marking a strategic shift toward domestic production of its advanced AI infrastructure.
Blackwell Chip Production Starts in Arizona
NVIDIA’s Blackwell chips have entered production at TSMC’s chip manufacturing facilities in Phoenix, Arizona. These chips form the core of NVIDIA’s AI supercomputers. The company has secured more than one million square feet of space for chip development and testing in the state.
Texas Facilities to Assemble and Scale Supercomputers
NVIDIA is establishing supercomputer manufacturing plants in Texas. Foxconn is building facilities in Houston, while Wistron is setting up operations in Dallas. These plants are expected to ramp up to mass production within the next 12 to 15 months, supporting the full assembly of NVIDIA’s AI systems.
Advanced Packaging and Testing Operations with Amkor and SPIL
To meet the high technical demands of AI chip production, NVIDIA is working with Amkor and SPIL for packaging and testing in Arizona. These operations are critical to maintaining quality and performance standards across NVIDIA’s AI supply chain.
Strategic Partnerships to Build U.S. AI Infrastructure
Over the next four years, NVIDIA plans to produce up to $500 billion worth of AI infrastructure in the U.S. in collaboration with TSMC, Foxconn, Wistron, Amkor, and SPIL. These companies are expanding their operations with NVIDIA to strengthen global presence and supply chain resilience.
According to Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, “The engines of the world’s AI infrastructure are being built in the United States for the first time.” He added that U.S.-based manufacturing will help NVIDIA meet the rising demand for AI chips and supercomputers while enhancing supply chain security.
NVIDIA Integrates AI and Robotics into Factory Operations
NVIDIA will deploy its own technologies to design and operate these facilities. Using NVIDIA Omniverse, the company will create digital twins of its factories, while NVIDIA Isaac GR00T robots will be used to automate manufacturing processes.
