Nvidia secures SK Hynix memory in $500B AI deal
Nvidia announced an agreement with South Korea’s SK Hynix to secure high-bandwidth memory supplies for its advanced GPUs and AI systems. The deal, unveiled at an AI summit in San Francisco, could be worth as much as $500 billion over multiple years and includes construction of large-scale data centers expected to come online in 2027. SK Hynix affiliate SK Telecom will build a cloud business using Nvidia’s Vera Rubin systems, and Nvidia said it is targeting capacity requiring roughly 2 gigawatts of power. Nvidia also pledged $1 billion to Naver to support data center projects. The agreement aims to alleviate a global HBM memory shortage and signal broader infrastructure buildouts beyond traditional hyperscalers.

Pokémon Go is running UK-specific campaigns in 2026, including a Summer Quest activation in Shoreditch and a partnership with the National Trust across more than 140 sites.
