Global chip giants have gathered in Taiwan for the island’s top tech expo, Computex, as the sector grapples with the impact of US tariffs and disrupted supply chains.

Huang said Nvidia would work with Taiwanese tech giants Foxconn and TSMC as well as the government to build Taiwan's “first giant AI supercomputer here for the AI infrastructure and the AI ecosystem”.

“Taiwan doesn’t just build supercomputers for the world... we're also building AI for Taiwan,” Huang said in a keynote address, describing the island as the “centre” of the industry.

“Having a world-class AI infrastructure in Taiwan is really important.”
