Wistron Corporation<\/a> shares jumped 9.7% on Wednesday after the Taiwan-based technology service provider announced the opening of its first U.S. facility to build AI servers for Nvidia<\/a>.<\/p>\n Its D1 AI smart facility, a $700 million, 324,000-square-foot site in Fort Worth, Texas, currently produces Nvidia’s GB300 Grace Blackwell Ultra Superchip, an advanced AI processing platform. It will later expand to produce Nvidia’s Vera Rubin Superchip, which is critical to powering the next generation of AI computing.\u00a0<\/p>\n “In the next couple of years, this location will be one of the most important, as we build AI infrastructure here in the United States,” Wistron Chairman Simon Lin said<\/a> in the press release. <\/p>\n The new footprint highlights a broader trend of Taiwanese tech giants expanding their footprint in the U.S., following TSMC’s announcement<\/a> last week that it is doubling down on its investment in Arizona.\u00a0<\/p>\n Wistron’s new facility will ramp up production of Nvidia AI servers, expanding domestic capacity to assemble and test the systems, which integrate into Nvidia’s DSX infrastructure to deploy energy-efficient AI factories at scale.<\/p>\n Wistron said it is creating a new model for AI infrastructure production built on digital manufacturing, energy optimization and local operations.\u00a0<\/p>\n “Demand for AI factories\u2014the engine of this next industrial revolution\u2014is incredible, and they must be produced everywhere,” Jensen Huang, chief executive officer of Nvidia, said. <\/p>\n Wistron said the Fort Worth plant will serve as the core engine of its U.S. manufacturing operations, adding that the investment reflects the next phase of AI infrastructure development. <\/p>\n Nvidia’s partner manufacturing facilities span<\/a> 43 U.S. states, with partners including Wistron, TSMC and Foxconn, contributing an estimated $485 billion to the U.S. GDP in 2026.<\/p>\n
