shares of nevius group It then rose 10% on Wednesday. Nvidia announced that it will invest $2 billion in an artificial intelligence cloud company.
As part of the agreement, the companies will collaborate on AI infrastructure deployment, fleet management, inference, and AI factory design and support, according to the release. Nvidia said the investment reflects its confidence in Nebius’ business and engineering expertise.
“Nebius is building an AI cloud designed for the agent era, fully integrated from silicon to software and powered by NVIDIA’s next-generation accelerated computing,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in a statement. “Together, we are expanding the cloud to meet the rapidly growing demand for intelligence around the world.”
The announcement comes a week after Nvidia announced strategic partnerships with Lumentum and Coherent, investing $2 billion in both companies. In December, Nvidia acquired a $2 billion stake in chip design company Synopsys.
Nvidia also announced on Tuesday a “significant investment” in Mira Murati’s Thinking Machines Lab as part of a new multi-year strategic partnership.
Nvidia contributed $30 billion to OpenAI’s $110 billion funding round announced late last month, and announced in November that it plans to invest up to $10 billion in Anthropic. Huang said in a press conference earlier this month that this investment may be Nvidia’s last investment in the companies before they go public.
Nvidia is one of the biggest beneficiaries of the AI boom, as it produces the graphics processing units (GPUs) needed to train models and run large-scale AI workloads.
The chipmaker’s announcement Wednesday builds on Nebius’ continued efforts to deploy Nvidia’s infrastructure, including multiple gigawatt-sized AI factories in the United States.
“Nebius was built for AI from the beginning and is designed for what developers actually need, not a general-purpose cloud application,” Nebius CEO Arkady Volozh said in a statement. “Now, together with NVIDIA, we are extending it across the entire stack, from gigawatt-scale AI factories to inference and software, building one of the first and largest clouds for all AI builders in the world.”
