NVIDIA's Jensen Huang has discussed more about their new "Constellation" Taiwan office, revealing that the primary reason was to get more office space. NVIDIA Calls Taiwan An Integral Part of The Manufacturing World, Saying That The World Cannot Remain Stable Without It Taiwan has played an integral part in NVIDIA's journey over the years, and it is the second home to the company after the US. Jensen has reiterated his commitment to Taiwan and its regional partners through a dedicated part of his keynote at Computex, which shows that the country holds immense importance. After we reported on NVIDIA building a global headquarters in Taiwan, more details about it have surfaced since then, with Jensen claiming that the primary reason for the project is to get more chairs into the office. We’ve been in Taiwan for 30 years. I just need a bigger building. I’m not opening anything. We need more chairs. It’s not international news. The reason we need a larger office is because the current office cannot fit enough chairs. If one employee sits down, another has to stand. One person types, the other has to stop. The office said they didn’t have enough chairs. - NVIDIA's CEO via More Than Moore There has been some distancing between NVIDIA and Taiwan ever since the Trump adminstration took over the office, given that Team Green has been more focused on setting up TSMC's US operations, which is a move that isn't seen as something positive by the Taiwan administration. In terms of the specifics of the new Taiwan HQ, NVIDIA calls it the "Constellation", and it will be set up at the Beitou Shilin Science Park. The office will cover 3.89 hectares in the science park, and development will start as soon as possible. Even though NVIDIA's CEO denies any "geopolitical" reasons for setting up an HQ in Taiwan, there's no doubt that the country needs attention from Team Green, especially at a time when the world is tipping away from it following its tensions with China. NVIDIA's CEO claims that Taiwan's stability is equal to the stability of the whole world and that the nation would play a vital part in the process of "globalizing manufacturing." Apart from a dedicated HQ in Taiwan, NVIDIA also plans to build a Blackwell-powered AI supercomputer in the region, collaborating with Foxconn and TSMC. So, it is safe to say that besides all the investments Team Green is making, spending some money in Taiwan seems like a decent deal for all parties involved.
