Nvidia Denies Sharing GPU Designs with China Amid R&D Center Speculation
Nvidia has responded to reports about a potential research and development center in Shanghai, China, asserting that it is not providing GPU designs to the country. This statement directly addresses concerns arising from recent U.S. export regulations.
"We are not sending any GPU designs to China to be modified to comply with export controls," a spokesperson for Nvidia stated to CNBC, emphasizing the company's commitment to adhering to U.S. regulations.
The Financial Times initially reported that Nvidia was considering establishing a center in China to maintain its competitive edge in the face of tightening restrictions on chip exports from the U.S. to China. Nvidia's denial aims to clarify its position in light of these reports and the evolving geopolitical landscape.
