Amkor Technology Partners with NVIDIA to Advance AI Packaging and Testing

Amkor Technology Announces Strategic Partnership with NVIDIA

Amkor Technology’s partnership with NVIDIA marks a major milestone in the development of next generation AI infrastructure through advanced semiconductor packaging and testing. Amkor Technology & NVIDIA Partnership Combines Two Industry Leaders to Accelerate Innovation and Grow Advanced Packaging Capabilities in the U.S. Furthermore, the Amkor Technology NVIDIA collaboration is addressing the increasing need for artificial intelligence and accelerated computing platforms in global markets.

The multi-year agreement involves an up-front payment by NVIDIA to support Amkor Technology’s increase in advanced packaging capacity in the United States. The collaboration will target the development of cutting-edge semiconductor packaging and test technologies to enhance the performance, efficiency and reliability of AI platforms. The companies seek to reinforce the semiconductor ecosystem through long-term investments in technology as AI adoption continues to accelerate.

The key to higher computing performance, better energy efficiency and stronger system-level integration is advanced semiconductor packaging. As such, Amkor Technology and NVIDIA will synchronize their long-term technology roadmaps to enable innovations in high-density interconnects and next-generation heterogeneous integration. These technologies will be the foundation for the future AI infrastructure and ever more sophisticated computing applications.

Amkor has continuously supported advanced packaging solutions for NVIDIA’s growing product portfolio. These solutions support accelerated computing systems, networking chipsets and next generation data center processors. The expanded partnership will also allow both companies to bring advanced packaging technologies to mass production as global demand for AI infrastructure continues to grow.

Partnership Strengthens U.S. AI Manufacturing & Supply Chains

The partnership also underscores both companies’ shared commitment to build out full turnkey advanced packaging and testing capabilities in the United States. The initiative also boosts domestic semiconductor manufacturing and enhances supply chain resilience for AI infrastructure. The agreement with NVIDIA on capacity supports Amkor’s planned expansion in Arizona and supplements the company’s existing manufacturing operations in Asia. It makes the partnership a more resilient and geographically diversified global semiconductor supply chain.

“AI is driving a generational shift in technology, transforming every industry and creating a unique opportunity to reinvigorate American manufacturing and supply chains,” said Debora Shoquist, Executive Vice President of Operations at NVIDIA. “Amkor’s global capabilities, combined with their committed investment in the United States, are critical components of building resilient AI infrastructure and accelerating next-generation technologies.”

Kevin Engel, Chief Executive Officer of Amkor Technology, also emphasized the importance of the expanded collaboration.

“This strategic partnership with NVIDIA underscores the central role advanced packaging plays in enabling the future of AI,” said Kevin Engel, chief executive officer of Amkor Technology. “Our agreement with NVIDIA accelerates our long-term roadmap and supports our ability to deliver full turnkey advanced packaging and test solutions, leveraging our global footprint while expanding U.S. capabilities to support critical AI infrastructure.”

Spanning operations across Asia and the United States, the NVIDIA-Amkor collaboration aligns technology development with manufacturing expansion. As a result, both companies will continue supporting the rapid evolution of AI platforms while enhancing semiconductor packaging, advanced testing, and global AI infrastructure for future innovation.
