Nvidia expands AI financing, infrastructure, and software

Overview

Nvidia is aggressively expanding its influence across the AI software, financing, and infrastructure ecosystems. A central component of this strategy is the announced agreement to acquire the AI platform Hugging Face for approximately $12.9 billion, a deal expected to close in the first half of 2027. While Hugging Face hosts over 3 million models, CEO Jensen Huang has pledged the platform will remain open to the AI community. This acquisition is expected to face regulatory scrutiny in Paris and Brussels regarding the EU AI Act.

Financially, Nvidia is experiencing massive growth. The company recently reported a 106% year-over-year revenue increase to $96 billion in a single quarter, with net income reaching approximately $59 billion. This performance has propelled its market capitalization toward a range of $5.4 trillion to $5.6 trillion. As of July 2026, Nvidia’s AI equity portfolio reached $99 billion, and the company has projected approximately 70% revenue growth for fiscal 2028.

Infrastructure and startup investments continue to scale. Nvidia is pursuing a $6 billion technology licensing deal with Poolside and is preparing to invest between $2.5 billion and $3 billion in Thinking Machines Lab. An expanded collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) aims to deploy 2 million Nvidia GPUs across AWS infrastructure by 2028. Furthermore, new partnerships with MediaTek and Lenovo aim to bring AI computing to consumer devices, including Windows PCs featuring RTX-Spark chips expected in October. While the AI Bubble Index has risen to 57, indicating increased speculative activity, analysts remain divided on long-term sustainability.
