Analysis · BAM · Finance
A massive expansion of Korea's sovereign AI infrastructure is underway, with Brookfield Asset Management, NVIDIA, and NAVER at the helm. The plan triples the initial 55-megawatt NVIDIA DSX AI factory to 200 megawatts by 2028, targeting a long-term goal of 1 gigawatt. Brookfield commits up to $9 billion in funding, while NVIDIA plans a $1 billion strategic investment in NAVER. This cements Brookfield's position as a leading AI infrastructure investor, leveraging its $100 billion AI infrastructure platform. The deal aligns with recent momentum—Brookfield's private credit pool surged to $6.5 billion, and it recently secured a $17.5 billion DOE loan commitment for energy projects. The partnership deepens ties with NVIDIA, a founding partner in Brookfield's Global AI Infrastructure Program, and signals strong demand for AI compute capacity.
