Nvidia has confirmed “Globes” report that it has chosen the Israel Land Authority (ILA) area in Kiryat Tivon to build its huge campus that will accommodate up to 10,000 employees.
According to the illustration published by the US chip giant, this will be a large campus inspired by the design of the company’s new iconic headquarters in Santa Clara. When built it will be surrounded by commercial areas and restaurants with investment in parks and green spaces.

Ya. It’s disappointing. But there are so many foundries in Israel. I’m not surprised. This is also why I don’t believe in terrorists. If anyone really wanted to stop Israel. They would target their foundries. But no one would dare mess with capitalism on that level.
Nvidia is terrorist supporter!!!
This has aged appropriately:
Hard to imagine a more disgusting headline for Nvidia. I hope they go broke.
Well I’ll never buy nvidia again
Neither. Even before seeing this I had decided my next GPU will be AMD, just because of how crap Nvidias driver support is on Linux.
That tracks.
Not defending Jensen or Israel, but want to point out that Israel has many good engineers - the Intel team that designed the Core/Core Duo/Core Quad and saved Intel from the Netburst (Pentium 4) architecture was from Israel.
They have smart people, but I definitely do not agree with their government’s actions.
Nazi Germany had millions of smart people supporting the world domination effort.
Where does smart=decent?
Where does smart=decent?
Makes me think of the country subreddit I left not so long ago, where the members were so full of themselves and despite their intelligence they would like to commit genocide on the lower classes.
The Nazis had good engineers too. What’s the point of your comment?
The point is that’s why Nvidia is setting up shop there. You know… the original story of this thread…
Anyway, one of the Nazi’s downfall was they kept designing better and better tanks, and that ultimately required more resources to build. While the US just basically kept spamming them with simple design tanks that doesn’t require as much to build.
They have dumb people too, same as any other population of humans.
that’s no question, NSO group and I think a few other commercial rootkit makers are also located there.
Even if one doesn’t care about genocide, they should still care if their own GPU is rigged to explode.
I find it amusing people say they’ll boycott NVIDIA because they set up shop in Israel.
- they set up shop in Israel a long time ago (2016 to the best of my memory)
- all of their competitors also operate in Israel to some degree
If you need discrete graphics you don’t have any choice. They all operate in Israel to some degree.
Add that to the dangers of oligopolies. They can really just do whatever they want at this point.
Intel set up shop in Israel long ago, but I’m still boycotting. At least we have AMD as an alternative.
Cool. I’m now 100% team AMD if I could even buy a guy ever again.
And again I have to say Jensen Huang is a piece of shit.
So new nvidia chip designs will include israeli rootkits, got it.
So now Nvidia will be the red one? You know, with all the blood shed by Israel…
as if i needed another reason to avoid nvidia. unconscionable move here.
I just need to figure out what the best AMD card I can get is which isn’t going to break the bank and be a sizeable bump over my 2070s then I’ll have no more Nvidia products in my home.
same card, lmk what you find out
I was just reading Apple doing all of it’s Silicon R&D over Israel as well. Wondering what Israel is promising them to get landed with lucrative business.
So they won’t be able to claim “designed in California” or w/e anymore?
It’s probably something illegal involving kids the way billionares have been acting…
