Nokia Lands $1B From Nvidia in Game-Changing Tech Partnership
Nvidia is expanding its reach beyond artificial intelligence and data centers with a bold $1 billion investment in Nokia.
The move gives Nvidia a 2.9% stake in the Finnish telecom giant and deepens its involvement in next-generation network technology.
Through the deal, Nokia will integrate Nvidia’s chips into its software for 5G and upcoming 6G networks, while Nvidia will explore ways to incorporate Nokia’s data center expertise into its own AI infrastructure.
The announcement coincided with CEO Jensen Huang’s GTC seminar, emphasizing Nvidia’s growing role in reshaping digital infrastructure from the ground up.
Nokia, once synonymous with mobile phones, has successfully repositioned itself as a leader in telecom and computing solutions. The company’s renewed focus on high-performance infrastructure helped it post 9% year-over-year sales growth in Q3 2025, beating Wall Street forecasts.
The investment follows Nvidia’s recent strategic plays involving OpenAI and Intel, further demonstrating its ambition to dominate the broader technology ecosystem. The market reaction was swift — Nokia’s stock soared over 20% after the announcement, while Nvidia shares saw modest gains of nearly 2%.
