Nvidia forges AI alliances with SK Hynix, Naver, and Doosan to dominate Asia's data-center market

Nvidia’s latest AI infrastructure deals with South Korean tech giants SK Hynix, Naver, and Doosan mark a strategic push to dominate Asia’s fast-growing data-center market, analysts say. The agreements, announced Monday, will see Nvidia supply its advanced AI chips and software to build large-scale computing hubs across South Korea, deepening the Silicon Valley firm’s footprint in a region where demand for generative AI services is surging.

The partnerships come as Nvidia’s valuation approaches $3 trillion, fueling comparisons to the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s. Morning briefings in Frankfurt and Stockholm this week highlighted the paradox: while markets flash warning signs of an overheated tech sector, Nvidia’s stock continues to climb on bets that its AI dominance will endure.

Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang confirmed the company is also collaborating with LG to develop humanoid robots and expand data-center capacity, signaling a broader push beyond traditional chip sales into robotics and cloud services. The moves align with Nvidia’s strategy to become the backbone of the global AI ecosystem, from semiconductor manufacturing to end-user applications.

Meanwhile, rival tech firms are scrambling to keep pace. Google’s top AI executive, James Manyika, told *Handelsblatt* that Elon Musk’s SpaceX is attempting to replicate Google’s AI infrastructure, though with a focus on satellite-based computing power. SpaceX’s pending IPO, expected to be the largest in history, has intensified competition in the AI infrastructure race, with Musk also leasing Google’s cloud capacity to power his Grok chatbot.

The frenzy contrasts with growing market jitters. European and U.S. investors are increasingly vocal about the risks of a tech bubble, yet Nvidia’s latest deals suggest the AI infrastructure gold rush is far from over. Analysts at *Die Presse* note that while some high-flying startups may falter, Nvidia’s entrenched position in data-center hardware and software makes it a less risky bet.

As the AI arms race accelerates, the question remains: Can Nvidia sustain its growth without triggering a broader correction? For now, the South Korean partnerships underscore its determination to stay ahead, even as the broader tech sector faces mounting scrutiny.
