⚡️🚨 NEW - Huawei Korea: "We will launch AI chips in Korea next year… Nvidia is not the only option."

Huawei plans to expand in the Korean market by launching its latest AI chip, "Ascend," domestically next year.

Balian Wang, CEO of Huawei Korea, stated at the "Huawei Day 2025" press conference held at The Plaza Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul, on the 26th, "Huawei Korea will officially launch AI computing cards and AI data center solutions next year," adding, "We aim to provide Korean companies with a second option besides Nvidia."

The chip to be released is expected to be the latest AI chip, the "Ascend 950."
