SK hynix Lands at NVIDIA GTC 2026... Showcasing AI Memory Competitiveness

Held in San Jose, California, from March 16 to 19
Attended by Chairman Chey Taewon, CEO Kwak Nohjung, and other key executives

On March 17, SK hynix announced that it will participate in 'GTC 2026,' which will be held in San Jose, California, USA, from March 16 to 19 (local time).

GTC is NVIDIA's annual technology conference, where leading companies and developers from around the world gather to share the latest technologies and industry trends in artificial intelligence (AI) and accelerated computing.

SK hynix stated, "We have equipped NVIDIA's AI infrastructure with memory products that minimize data bottlenecks and maximize performance in AI training and inference," adding, "Through this event, we will showcase the competitiveness of our memory technology, which is a core infrastructure in the AI era, based on our partnership with NVIDIA."

At this event, SK hynix has set up an exhibition space themed 'Spotlight on AI Memory' to introduce its AI memory technologies and solutions.

The exhibition hall consists of the following zones: the NVIDIA Collaboration Zone, the Product Portfolio Zone, and the Event Zone. It is designed as an interactive experience so that visitors can intuitively understand AI memory technology.

The 'NVIDIA Collaboration Zone,' located at the entrance, is the centerpiece of the exhibition, highlighting the collaborative achievements between SK hynix and NVIDIA. Here, SK hynix will present its flagship memory products, such as the sixth-generation high bandwidth memory HBM4, HBM3E (fifth generation), and SOCAMM2, focusing on real-world applications of these products in NVIDIA's various AI platforms. The memory configurations mounted on GPU-based AI accelerators will be showcased using both models and actual products.

In particular, the exhibition will feature the liquid-cooled eSSD (enterprise solid-state drive) developed in collaboration with NVIDIA, as well as NVIDIA's AI supercomputer 'DGX Spark,' which incorporates SK hynix's LPDDR5X.

In the 'Product Portfolio Zone,' visitors will be able to see at a glance the lineup of memory products designed for the AI era, including HBM4 and HBM3E—core components of AI infrastructure—as well as high-capacity server DRAM modules, LPDDR6, GDDR7, eSSD, and automotive memory solutions.

Visitors can use a joystick to directly select products of interest and view each product's features and application cases on a screen. This creates an interactive exhibition environment where visitors can independently explore and understand the information they need.

At the participatory 'Event Zone,' visitors can experience the 'HBM 16-Layer Stacking Game,' inspired by the HBM stacking structure. Through this activity, where they virtually stack memory chips, visitors can learn about TSV processes and high-density packaging technology, thereby deepening their understanding of how high-performance AI semiconductors are realized.

Meanwhile, during GTC 2026, SK hynix plans to explore collaboration directions aligned with the latest trends in the global AI industry. Key executives, including Chey Tae-won, Chairman of SK Group, and Kwak Noh-jung, CEO of SK hynix, will meet with global big tech companies to share insights on AI technology development and infrastructure transformation, and to discuss mid- to long-term cooperation plans.

In addition, through technology sessions, the company will explain the future direction of AI-based manufacturing and the role of memory technology in enabling high-performance AI.

SK hynix stated, "As AI technology advances, memory has become a key element that determines the structure and performance of the entire AI infrastructure, beyond being just a simple component," adding, "Based on our memory technology capabilities that span the entire AI domain, from data centers to on-device, SK hynix will shape the future of AI together with our global partners."
