Jensen Huang: Israel has become Nvidias second home
Nvidia's CEO has confirmed that the US chip giant will build its huge campus for up to 10,000 employees in Kiryat Tivon.
Nvidia CEO and founder Jensen Huang said, "Israel is home to some of the world's most brilliant technologists and has become Nvidia's second home. Our new campus will be a place where our teams can collaborate, invent, and build the future of AI. This investment reflects our deep and enduring commitment to our families in Israel and their unique contributions to the AI era."
The company has bought Israeli startup Mellanox in 2016, and since then bought 4 more in the country, with its offices spreads across Israel. Nvidia also plans to build one of the biggest data centers in middle-east in Israel, with a new super-computer for its own use.
Jensen has shown great support, always mentioning Avinatan Or in quarterly briefings, an employee, who was kidnapped with his girlfriend Noa Argamani on 10/7. She was rescued in a daring operation, while he was released just a few months ago after 738 days in captivity.
