NVIDIA Corporation, NVDA
The stock movement occurred in the wake of conflicting statements regarding the company’s investment plans in Mexico. Despite claims from the governor of Nuevo Leon, NVIDIA denied reports that it intended to invest $1 billion in building a data center in the region.
NVIDIA Refutes $1 Billion Investment Report
Earlier in the day, the Governor of Nuevo Leon, Samuel Garcia, made a public announcement suggesting that NVIDIA was preparing to invest $1 billion in a “green” data center. He claimed that the facility would focus on artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and would bring significant technological development to the region. Garcia’s announcement came in a video posted on social media, where he appeared with representatives from NVIDIA.
NVIDIA denied shortly after the governor’s statement, calling the investment claim inaccurate. The company clarified that it had no financial investment plans for the state of Nuevo Leon. NVIDIA further explained that its efforts in Latin America focus solely on collaboration initiatives, research, and talent development, without any current plans for large-scale financial investments in the area.
The confusion stemmed from the presence of NVIDIA representatives during Garcia’s announcement, which may have led to the misconception. Despite the unclear nature of the meeting, the company did not comment on the identities of the individuals involved or the nature of their discussions with the governor. In its statement, NVIDIA emphasized that it had not made any official commitment to the alleged data center project.
NVIDIA’s Broader Strategy in Latin America
NVIDIA has been focused on advancing digital transformation across Latin America, but it has consistently emphasized that its work does not involve large-scale investments like the one described by Garcia. The company’s approach in the region has been centered around fostering innovation through partnerships and supporting the development of local talent. This model, according to NVIDIA, ensures sustainable growth in the technological sector while contributing to regional development.
NVIDIA’s commitment to Latin America has remained strong, but the company’s focus has been primarily on enabling collaboration rather than making direct financial investments. While the reported $1 billion data center plan would have signified a major move for NVIDIA, the company stressed that such a project is not part of its current strategic initiatives in the region. Instead, its primary goal is to enhance technological skills and foster research partnerships in the region.
