Nvidia commits $1B over five years to US science

NVIDIA said on Oct. 8, 2026 it will commit $1 billion over five years to U.S. super-intelligence research, including university compute, quantum work, and cloud providers serving government missions, at the White House Science: A New Golden Age event. The White House listed that pledge inside a $2.4 billion industry pool that also names AMD ($500 million), OpenAI ($200 million), Anthropic and Google ($150 million each), and AWS ($50 million). NVIDIA did not split the $1 billion among those uses, and the figure is a multi-year commitment rather than a booked payment.
