(RTTNews) - NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) announced an expanded partnership with NAVER Corp. (035420.KS), which plans to scale AI factories from an initial 55 megawatts to gigawatt capacity using NVIDIA's DSX platform.
The partnership aims to build sovereign AI infrastructure in South Korea.
The expansion will begin at NAVER's GAK Sejong data center in South Korea.
The companies will deploy DSX-powered AI cloud infrastructure to support enterprises, industries, government organizations and AI cloud customers.

NAVER said it plans to launch an AI Agent Platform in Korea in the second half of 2026, powered by NVIDIA NeMo-based blueprints.
The company is also developing a Seoul World Model using its urban street-view data and spatial modeling technology built on NVIDIA Cosmos world foundation models.
