To meet the growing demand for AI infrastructure, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) today announced more than $10 billion in investments across the Taiwan ecosystem to expand strategic partnerships and scale advanced packaging manufacturing for next-generation AI infrastructure.

Working with strategic partners in Taiwan and globally, AMD is advancing leading-edge silicon, packaging and manufacturing technologies that enable higher performance, greater efficiency and faster deployment of AI systems. These efforts build on AMD's deep ecosystem partnerships and long-standing leadership in chiplet architectures, high-bandwidth memory integration, 3D hybrid bonding and rack-scale system design for next-generation AI infrastructure. 

"As AI adoption accelerates, our global customers are rapidly scaling AI infrastructure to meet growing compute demand," said Dr. Lisa Su, Chair and CEO, AMD. "By combining AMD leadership in high-performance computing with the Taiwan ecosystem and our strategic global partners, we are enabling integrated, rack-scale AI infrastructure that helps customers accelerate deployment of next-generation AI systems." 

Today's investment announcement demonstrates how AMD is extending its leadership through strategic partnerships that advance silicon, packaging and manufacturing innovations required for next-generation AI infrastructure:

• EFB ecosystem development: AMD is collaborating with Taiwan-based ASE and SPIL, as well as other industry partners, to develop and qualify next-generation wafer-based 2.5D bridge interconnect technology. EFB architecture increases interconnect bandwidth and improves power efficiency, supporting "Venice" CPUs. These improvements translate into faster, more efficient systems capable of delivering greater performance-per-watt while operating within real-world power and cooling constraints.
• Panel-based innovation with PTI: AMD has achieved a major milestone with PTI by qualifying the industry's first 2.5D panel-based EFB interconnect. The technology supports high-bandwidth interconnect at scale, allowing customers to deploy more efficient AI systems while improving overall economics.

Together, these advancements reinforce AMD's leadership in delivering high-performance AI infrastructure at scale. By combining silicon innovation with a robust global ecosystem, AMD is enabling customers to accelerate deployment of the next generation of AI systems.

Ecosystem Accelerates AMD Helios Deployment
AMD and its ecosystem partners are applying these innovations to support deployment of the AMD Helios rack-scale platform in the second half of 2026, marking a major step toward production-ready AI infrastructure.

Leading ODM partners including Sanmina, Wiwynn, Wistron and Inventec are helping to build AMD Helios-based systems powered by AMD Instinct™ MI450X GPUs, 6th Gen AMD EPYC™ CPUs, advanced networking solutions and the AMD ROCm™ open software stack, helping scale the platform from design to high-volume manufacturing.

The AMD Helios platform is designed to deliver breakthrough AI performance through advances in compute, interconnect bandwidth, memory capacity and system-level integration, allowing customers to run larger, more complex AI workloads faster while optimizing power and efficiency.
