GMI Cloud, a U.S.-based cloud services provider, is investing $500 million to build a new AI data centre in Taiwan with support from Nvidia. The company will launch the facility by March 2026 and aims to boost Taiwan’s growing AI industry.
Advanced Performance With Nvidia Blackwell
GMI Cloud equips the data centre with Nvidia Blackwell GB300 chips to support large-scale AI workloads.
Key Specs
- Houses 7,000 GPUs
- Uses 96 high-density racks
- Processes nearly 2 million tokens per second
- Draws 16 MW of power
CEO Alex Yeh says the company is expanding because its GPU utilisation is “almost full” and local AI demand continues to rise.
Strengthening Taiwan’s AI Ecosystem
GMI Cloud positions the new facility as a strategic asset for Taiwan. Yeh says Taiwan can solve its power challenges and must build AI clusters early to support innovation, startups, and local enterprises.
Part of Global AI Expansion
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang describes these large GPU clusters as “AI factories.”
Nvidia continues to support major AI projects in Saudi Arabia and South Korea, as well as a 100 MW AI data centre with Foxconn in Taiwan.
GMI Cloud is also:
- Building a 50 MW data centre in the U.S.
- Preparing for an IPO within 2–3 years
When will the new data centre launch?
It will launch in March 2026.
Why did GMI Cloud choose Taiwan?
The company wants to support Taiwan’s fast-growing AI ecosystem and meet strong GPU demand.
