NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ: NVDA) is one of the top tech stocks in Louis Navellier’s portfolio. On May 6, NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ: NVDA) entered into a strategic partnership with glassmaker Corning for three new advanced manufacturing facilities in North Carolina and Texas. The tie-up paves the way for integrating glass fiber between chips to replace copper cables.

As part of the strategic partnership, Nvidia is to invest $3.2 billion in Corning and, in return, receive warrants to purchase 15 million Corning shares at $180 per share. The remaining $500 million is to prefund warrants for Nvidia to purchase up to 3 million shares.

While the two companies have yet to share insights on why they are joining forces, CNBC reports that Nvidia plans to replace copper with Corning’s optical glass fibers in its AI rack-scale systems. The chip giant’s CEO, Jensen Huang, has already reiterated that co-packaged optics are crucial to AI build-out.

NVIDIA’s large-scale deployment of co-packaged optics is expected to significantly increase data transfer speeds and reduce the energy needs of AI workloads.

​NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) designs powerful Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) and specialized computing platforms for artificial intelligence (AI), data centers, gaming, and autonomous vehicles. They are pioneers in accelerated computing, providing the hardware and software (like CUDA) crucial for training Generative AI, simulating digital twins, and powering high-performance computing systems.
