Chipmaker Nvidia and cloud infrastructure company CoreWeave are extending an existing partnership that will allow CoreWeave to build more than 5 gigawatts of AI factories by 2030. This effort is backed by a $2 billion investment in CoreWeave from NVIDIA as the two companies enhance their infrastructure, software and platform alignment.

CoreWeave aims to help enterprises run demanding AI workloads efficiently and at scale. Its collaboration with Nvidia will allow it to develop and operate AI factories that leverage Nvidia’s computing technology. Nvidia will financially support CoreWeave’s procurement of land, power and shell to build the AI factories and deploy multiple generations of its infrastructure across CoreWeave’s platform. The companies will also test and validate CoreWeave’s AI-native software and reference architecture as part of the collaboration.

“Our collaboration reaffirms a simple shared conviction: AI succeeds when complementary software, infrastructure and operations are designed together,” Michael Intrator, CoreWeave’s CEO, wrote in a company blog post. “This newest collaboration validates that philosophy and underscores the strength of demand across our customer base. Because as AI enters production and weaves itself into the operating layer of the global economy, our partnership is evolving to meet this moment.”
