Taipei — October 28, 2025:
Foxconn has unveiled plans to channel up to NT$42 billion (about US$1.37 billion) into a new AI compute cluster and a supercomputing centre, marking a sizable step in the company’s shift toward advanced technology services.
The board approved the proposal on Monday, with the investment to be drawn from Foxconn’s cash reserves and implemented between December 2025 and December 2026. In its regulatory filing, the company said the project is intended to "expand the cloud compute service platform and accelerate the development of the Group’s three smart platforms."
Foxconn has not disclosed the precise location of the facilities; however, a person familiar with the plans indicated the funds will be invested in Taiwan. The firm has offered few additional specifics so far.
The move is part of Foxconn’s broader evolution from a traditional contract assembler into a provider of infrastructure and cloud services, as it seeks to reduce dependence on smartphone manufacturing. Earlier this year the company partnered with Nvidia on a Taiwan AI data centre designed to operate on 100 megawatts, and separately joined SoftBank in the Ohio-based “Stargate Project” to develop advanced data-centre equipment.
By backing this new supercomputing capacity, Foxconn is staking a stronger claim in the global AI ecosystem and underscoring Taiwan’s growing importance as a hub for next-generation computing.
