Jensen Huang is preparing for a major presence in Taipei, with a keynote slot ahead of the show. Rumors are swirling about a potential N1 launch targeting laptops.
The press in Taiwan reports that NVIDIA has reserved the Taipei International Convention Center (TICC) from June 1 to 4, with a potential keynote by Jensen Huang at the Taipei Music Center on the eve of the opening of Computex 2026. TAITRA and the official website already list Cristiano Amon (Qualcomm), Matt Murphy (Marvell), and Lip-Bu Tan (Intel), but NVIDIA has not been confirmed yet, with the keynote page still showing “Coming Soon.”
Industry sources mention a booth at the Nangang Exhibition Center and an expanded setup at the TICC dedicated to business meetings and media demos over four days. Interestingly, AMD has not confirmed its keynote, despite historically being a highlight for the brand.
In February, Jensen Huang hinted at his presence this year with a speech and “a lot of announcements,” as reported by Focus Taiwan. This timing coincides with speculation surrounding the portable NVIDIA N1 SoC, expected to be a derivative of the Blackwell platform using the GB10 Superchip chips, with Dell and Lenovo on board.
A potential N1 or N1X launch during the keynote would establish NVIDIA in the Windows on Arm segment for laptops. The focus would combine CPU/GPU integration and local AI acceleration, positioning it against competing Arm platforms and x86 with integrated NPUs.
While NVIDIA’s presence at Computex has yet to be officially confirmed, the four-day booking at the TICC and the prospect of a keynote alongside the show indicate a significant event. The introduction of N1 would redefine the PC OEM and software ecosystem around Arm, with direct implications for battery life, performance/watt, and the distribution of AI workloads among CPUs, GPUs, and dedicated accelerators.
