NVIDIA announced on the 25th that these corporate leaders toured NVIDIA headquarters in Santa Clara, California, on the 24th (local time).

Chairman Lee, Executive Chair Chung, and Chairman Lee each took commemorative photos with NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang in the lobby of the headquarters’ Endeavor Building.

The Endeavor Building is designed with an angular shape inspired by the triangle, the fundamental element of modern computer graphics.

The photos released by NVIDIA show CEO Huang together with Chairman Lee and Executive Chair Chung, as well as Chairman Lee being photographed with officials from both companies.

NVIDIA did not disclose any specific details of the meetings or the topics discussed by the participants.

During this meeting, it is believed that Chairman Lee and CEO Huang focused their discussions on the memory and foundry businesses. Samsung Electronics supplies high-performance memory, including high bandwidth memory (HBM), to NVIDIA.

It has been reported that Executive Chair Chung and CEO Huang discussed potential collaboration across a wide range of areas, including autonomous driving, robotics, and manufacturing AI.

It is also expected that Naver's management team, including Chairman Lee Hae-jin and CEO Choi Soo-yeon, discussed cooperation with CEO Huang regarding the AI factory construction project.

An AI factory is a facility that combines physical infrastructure such as GPU servers, data centers, and power and cooling systems with AI models and cloud technology to support large-scale AI computation.

Given that leaders and founders from major Korean companies visited NVIDIA headquarters together, there is speculation that the discussions may have broadly included cooperation on AI semiconductors, data centers, and physical AI as well.

The day before, CEO Huang met with Chey Tae-won, chairman of SK Group, for dinner in Woodside, California, where they discussed expanding cooperation in AI infrastructure, semiconductors, and physical AI.
