Foxconn building Nvidia superchip manufacturing plant in Mexico

In Mexico Foxconn is building the world's largest manufacturing facility for bundling Nvidia's GB200 superchips, said senior executives of the electronics manufacturing company. The chip is a significant component of the U.S. firm's next-generation Blackwell family computing platform.

 

Foxconn has been benefiting from the artificial intelligence boom as it assembles servers used to process AI work. "We're building the largest GB200 production facility on the planet," said Benjamin Ting, Foxconn Senior Vice President for the Cloud Enterprise Solutions Business Group.

 

A source from the Mexican Government revealed that the manufacturing plant will be located in the city of Guadalajara.

 

In August, Nvidia mentioned that the company had started shipping Blackwell samples to its partners and customers after tweaking its design. Also, the company anticipated several billion dollars in revenue from these chips in the fourth quarter.     

 

Ting highlighted that the collaboration between Foxconn and Nvidia was very critical and everyone was asking for Nvidia's Blackwell platform. "The demand is awfully huge," Ting said at the company's annual tech day in Taipei, standing next to Nvidia's Vice President for AI and robotics, Deepu Talla.

 

Speaking to reporters later, Foxconn Chairman Young Liu said the plant was being built in Mexico, and the capacity there would be "very, very enormous."
