The project aims to automate semiconductor production for mobile devices and robotics, while improving chip yields and speed. Samsung has not revealed a construction timeline yet.
A $5 Trillion Partner and a Global AI Push
The deal extends Samsungâs two-decade partnership with Nvidia. CEO Jensen Huang met with Samsung Chairman Jay Y. Lee in Seoul this week, signaling closer collaboration between the two tech leaders.
Nvidia, fresh off reaching a $5 trillion market cap, continues to expand its business through deep partnerships. Huang said the company now has $500 billion in GPU orders across its Blackwell and Rubin architectures.
Nvidia executives said Samsungâs use of its GPUs will make lithography processes up to 20 times more efficient. Samsung will also deploy Nvidiaâs Omniverse simulation platform to enhance production accuracy.
HBM Memory Race Heats Up
Alongside the AI facility, Samsung confirmed it is in âclose discussionâ to supply Nvidia with its next-generation HBM4 chips. These high-bandwidth memory units are crucial for powering large AI models.
Samsung plans to market HBM4 in 2026, competing with rival SK Hynix, which will begin shipping HBM4 later this year. Samsung currently sells its HBM3E chips to âall major customers,â including Nvidia.
Analysts say a successful HBM4 launch could help Samsung reclaim market share lost in the AI memory boom. âIf Samsung supplies HBM4 to Nvidia, it could secure a major position it missed in prior cycles,â said Jeff Kim of KB Securities.
AI Megafactory and Industry Impact
The new facility will serve both as a production plant and a research site for next-gen AI chips. Samsung will use the GPUs to simulate design workflows, train internal AI models, and optimize manufacturing.
The collaboration highlights South Koreaâs growing role in the global AI supply chain. Nvidiaâs Asia-Pacific VP, Raymond Teh, said the company is working with the Korean government to advance national AI initiatives.
Samsungâs share price jumped more than 4% after the news, extending a 60% rally since July. Investors expect the companyâs renewed AI strategy and memory sales to drive continued growth into 2026.
