Nvidia Expands AI Chip Sales Beyond Major Tech Companies

According to BlockBeats, Nvidia is actively seeking to reduce its reliance on large technology firms by establishing new partnerships to sell its AI chips to nation-states, conglomerates, and challengers to groups like Microsoft, Amazon, and Google. This week, Nvidia announced a multi-billion dollar chip agreement with Saudi Arabia's Humain, while the UAE revealed plans to coordinate with the U.S. government to build one of the world's largest data centers. These 'sovereign AI' deals are a crucial part of Nvidia's strategy to attract clients outside Silicon Valley. Executives, industry insiders, and analysts indicate that the $3.2 trillion chip manufacturer aims to expand its business beyond super-scale enterprises. Nvidia reports that major cloud computing groups account for over half of its data center revenue and is working to support potential competitors to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. This includes fostering 'neoclouds' such as CoreWeave, Nebius, Crusoe, and Lambda to become part of its growing 'Nvidia Cloud Partners' network.
