Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Signals Bold Expansion in Taiwan: "The More Headquarters, the Better"

Stepping into Nvidia's new Nangang office on Friday morning, CEO Jensen Huang (黃仁勳) looked less like a corporate executive and more like a commander-in-chief surveying the front lines of the AI revolution. Amid a flurry of camera flashes, Huang sent a clear message to the world: Taiwan is no longer just Nvidia's factory—it is now its strategic brain.

The visit, marking the second day of his Taiwan tour, was anchored by a high-stakes meeting with Foxconn Chairman Young Liu (劉揚偉). Their discussions centered on a partnership that has moved far beyond simple manufacturing, now spanning AI cloud services, robotics, and the future of autonomous vehicles.

"In the past, our relationship with Taiwan was primarily about the supply chain," Huang told a crowd of reporters. But the tide has turned. Today, an increasing number of Taiwanese enterprises have become direct customers, deploying Nvidia's technology in fields like "Digital Twins" and advanced robotics. This shift, Huang noted, is a point of pride for the island's role in the global AI landscape. （Related： Taiwan Clears Key Defense Hurdle with First Successful Dive of Indigenous Submarine ｜ Latest ）

A Growing Footprint: Beauty and Scale

The physical manifestation of this growth is becoming hard to ignore. While rumors have swirled regarding a second headquarters at the Beitou Science Park, Huang hinted that the company's ambitions may be even broader.

"There are indeed some locations under discussion," Huang said, refusing to dismiss the possibility of multiple new sites. "It could be more than one. I think it's great—the more, the better". He revealed that one of the planned buildings is being designed to be "very beautiful," a project so secretive that even his own employees have rarely seen the blueprints.

The expansion is a direct response to a surge in workload. With a rapidly growing base of suppliers and customers in Taipei, the demand for space has outpaced existing facilities.

The Global Talent War: "We Are Hiring"

Perhaps the most urgent part of Huang's message was a direct appeal to Taiwan's engineering elite. Confirming that Nvidia is expanding its headcount globally, Huang made it clear that Taiwan remains the "core starting point" for the company's partner network.

When pressed on what kind of personality he seeks in a "Nvidian," Huang displayed his trademark wit. Pausing briefly, he looked at a reporter and quipped: "Someone like you would work". Behind the humor, however, was a serious call to action. With IC production and analysis centered in Hsinchu and system-level operations concentrated in Taipei, the company's dependence on local talent has never been higher.

"If anyone is listening," Huang stated bluntly, "yes, we are hiring". It was more than a recruitment pitch; it was a reaffirmation of Nvidia's long-term bet on Taiwan as the heart of the AI era.
