Foxconn is constructing the world’s largest facility in Mexico for bundling Nvidia’s GB200 superchips, a crucial component of Nvidia’s upcoming Blackwell computing platform. The Taiwanese electronics giant, known for assembling Apple’s iPhones, has been capitalising on the surge in demand for AI technology by manufacturing servers designed for AI processing.
Nvidia has already started shipping samples of its Blackwell chips and expects substantial revenue from these in the coming months. Foxconn executives highlighted the enormous demand for Nvidia‘s Blackwell platform, with many industry players seeking to adopt this next-generation AI computing technology.
The manufacturing plant in Mexico will have substantial capacity, building on Foxconn’s existing investments in the country. The company’s production capabilities are equipped with advanced liquid cooling technologies necessary for supporting AI servers, ensuring they meet the growing needs of the AI sector.
In addition to its focus on AI, Foxconn is diversifying its operations by expanding into the electric vehicle market. The company plans to leverage its technological expertise to become a leading EV contract manufacturer, producing vehicles under its Foxtron brand while helping automakers with manufacturing.
