Agent Assembly: NVIDIA Forges Strategic Alliances with LG and SK Hynix in Seoul

Jensen Huang continues to methodically build the architecture of global hardware dominance. On June 8, 2026, during a visit to Seoul, the head of NVIDIA officially cemented South Korea's role as the main manufacturing hub for physical AI.

Two monumental agreements were announced simultaneously. The first is a multi-year partnership with SK hynix, aimed at the global deployment of AI Factories and ensuring an uninterrupted supply of next-generation HBM memory. The second is an alliance with LG Group. Here, the focus shifts to data center infrastructure and, more importantly, the integration of neural networks into humanoid robots (Embodied AI). NVIDIA is no longer limited to selling chips to hyperscalers. The corporation is de facto contracting the capacities of Asian chaebols to lock in the entire production cycle: from server memory to the "iron muscles" of industrial robots.
