OpenAI is collaborating with Nscale Global Holdings and Aker to establish a data center named Stargate Norway, located near Narvik. The facility aims to integrate 100,000 Nvidia graphics-processing units by the end of next year, marking OpenAI's first major infrastructure initiative in Europe.

Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, and Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, finalized a monumental $100 billion partnership to enhance AI infrastructure just before Altman's presentation in Texas. The agreement signifies a deepening collaboration, as Nvidia will invest in OpenAI and provide cutting-edge processors for new data centers, while OpenAI navigates its relationships with other key partners like Microsoft and Oracle amid its ambitious infrastructure plans.

OpenAI and NVIDIA have announced a strategic partnership to deploy at least 10 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems for OpenAI's AI infrastructure, which will involve an investment of up to $100 billion from NVIDIA. The first phase is set to launch in the second half of 2026, utilizing the NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform to support the development of next-generation AI models. This collaboration aims to enhance AI capabilities and deliver significant computational resources for future innovations.
