News Summary:
- NAVER, an AI Cloud, will build AI factories on the NVIDIA DSX platform at gigawatt scale, starting with AI infrastructure expansion at GAK Sejong.
- NVIDIA DSX gives NAVER a proven AI factory blueprint to serve Korea’s industries and global AI cloud customers as demand for useful AI surges at lowest token cost.
- NAVER will use NVIDIA full-stack AI platforms, models and software to advance regional AI models including next-generation HyperCLOVA X models, its Seoul World Model development and agentic AI services.
SEOUL, South Korea, June 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NVIDIA and NAVER today announced that NAVER will expand sovereign AI infrastructure, starting at 55 megawatts with plans to move to gigawatt scale using the NVIDIA DSX™ platform to rapidly design, build and scale full-stack, end-to-end AI platforms that can serve enterprises, industries and government.
“Useful AI has arrived, and demand for AI factories is extraordinary,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NAVER is building AI factory infrastructure that will serve its companies, developers and industries. With NVIDIA DSX, we can help Korea scale sovereign intelligence infrastructure for the agentic era — from AI agents to AI factories and physical AI.”
“NAVER is building sovereign AI infrastructure that can serve Korea’s industries and global customers with trusted, high-performance AI,” said Haejin Lee, founder and chairman of NAVER. “By building on the NVIDIA DSX platform, we can help customers move from AI experimentation to production-scale AI factories that power models, agents and real-world services.”
As useful AI increasingly moves to production, AI factories are becoming critical infrastructure for training, post-training and inference. Built with the NVIDIA DSX platform with NVIDIA accelerated computing, NAVER’s AI factories will give Korea a sovereign foundation to create intelligence for enterprises, manufacturers, government organizations and AI cloud customers.
NVIDIA DSX-Powered AI Cloud to Expand NAVER GAK Sejong Data Center
The new DSX-powered cloud will expand NAVER’s GAK Sejong data center, a next-generation, hyperscale facility in Sejong, South Korea, built to power the company’s rapidly growing AI and cloud services.
Designed for high‑density NVIDIA accelerated computing, GAK Sejong delivers resilient, energy‑efficient operations with advanced automation, sustainability features and robust disaster‑response capabilities. GAK Sejong positions NAVER to support large‑scale digital services and innovation across Korea and beyond.
NAVER is serving sovereign AI demand with infrastructure across Europe and the Middle East. By combining its hyperscale data center capabilities with NVIDIA DSX, NAVER aims to offer government and enterprise customers a trusted alternative for secure, high‑performance digital services compliant with local regulatory and data‑sovereignty requirements.
NAVER will use NVIDIA full-stack AI platforms not only to fuel sovereign AI models and agentic AI services but also accelerate its AI data center business.
AI Cloud Infrastructure Builds on Companies’ Model Development Collaboration
The new AI cloud infrastructure builds on NVIDIA and NAVER’s partnership in advancing sovereign and physical AI models in Korea.
NAVER is advancing its HyperCLOVA X models by fine-tuning the NVIDIA Nemotron™ 3 Ultra open model with its proprietary data and training expertise, delivering a more capable and culturally fluent model for Korean and global enterprise customers. HyperCLOVA X models based on NVIDIA Nemotron also provide a platform to support sovereign AI initiatives in Europe and the Middle East.
NAVER is the first Korean company to participate in the NVIDIA Nemotron Coalition, contributing to open model development across pretraining, post-training and reinforcement learning to accelerate global AI innovation. It plans to launch an AI Agent Platform in Korea in the second half of the year, powered by NVIDIA NemoClaw™ blueprints.
NAVER is also developing a Seoul World Model using its proprietary urban street-view data and spatial modeling technology, building on NVIDIA Cosmos™ world foundation models.
NVIDIA DSX Platform to Power Rapid NAVER Expansion
The NVIDIA DSX platform is purpose-built as an end‑to‑end, codesigned stack for AI factories, spanning chips, systems, software, facilities and partner technologies to minimize token cost and speed time to first production.
NVIDIA DSX platform will pair with NAVER’s expertise in building and operating large-scale proprietary GPU clusters and hyperscale data centers.
NVIDIA DSX MaxLPS™ software achieves the lowest token cost by maximizing token throughput per megawatt, while NVIDIA DSX OS™ provides the operating layer that enables providers to grow revenue and enhance margins through open source, modular software for lifecycle management, consistent runtime operations, health automation, resiliency and multi‑tenant AI factory management.
