Touchdown in Seoul
On the heels of GTC Taipei at COMPUTEX, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang touched down in Seoul Friday afternoon, greeted by fans and media as his visit got underway.
A key focus of the trip, Huang said: to align the AI supply chain ahead of a busy second half of the year.
“We have a very significant, very large AI infrastructure buildout — already a very successful first half,” Huang told media. “Grace Blackwell, our system, is doing very well, and Vera Rubin is in full production — so we are going to be very busy the second half [of the year].”
Huang also touched on the huge potential for robotics and physical AI in Korea.
“Robotics is going to be the next major sector here in Korea — this is a great opportunity for Korea to invest in AI,” he said.
From memory manufacturing to robotics and gaming, Huang is off to a packed schedule with partners — but not without leaving time to enjoy some Korean fried chicken and BBQ. “It’s all delicious,” Huang said.
