Samsung and Broadcom Announce Multi-Year $200 Billion AI Chip Collaboration
Samsung Electronics and Broadcom have signed a memorandum of understanding for a multi-year collaboration worth over $200 billion, focusing on memory and foundry technologies to support next-generation artificial intelligence infrastructure. The partnership will involve supplying high-bandwidth memory solutions for Broadcom's AI accelerators and using Samsung’s advanced two-nanometer process technology in Broadcom products. The deal is expected to strengthen both companies' positions against competitors like TSMC as the demand for integrated semiconductor technologies grows due to advancements in AI. This follows recent major partnerships, including a $30 billion agreement between Broadcom and Apple, and another with Meta aimed at developing two-nanometer AI compute accelerators. Both Samsung and Broadcom have reported strong financial results driven by their AI-related businesses. Samsung attributed its record Q1 revenue partly to increased sales of high-value-added memory products for AI applications.
