  • Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang says Marvel Technology is the "next trillion dollar company."
  • Marvell Technology surged in premarket trading on Huang's comments.
  • Nvidia recently invested $2 billion in the chip maker and other firms designing photonic technology.
    Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang hailed this chip designer as the next trillion-dollar firm, sending its shares up sharply in premarket trading Tuesday. Marvell Technology, a semiconductor firm that designs chips for data centers, soared after Huang touted the company's efforts in supplying the AI infrastructure build-out during an onstage appearance with Marvell CEO Matthew Murphy at Computex Week in Taipei on Monday.
    The stock was last trading up 25% as of 6:05 am ET and is up over 158% in the year-to-date.
    Marvell is set to be the "next trillion-dollar company," Huang said, adding that the company's networking and connectivity chips are essential to data centers where computing tasks are spread across thousands of connected chips that need to share data quickly.
    "When you take a computing problem, and you disaggregate it into a lot of parts, and you distribute it across the entire data center, what's necessary is connectivity," Huang said. "That's the reason why Matt's doing so well. That's the reason why Marvel is so essential."
    "We've distributed and disaggregated computing so that it runs across these enormous clusters, so that we could get aggregating the total compute, the total memory, the total bandwidth that we have, and what makes it possible is connectivity," the Nvidia CEO added.
    Marvell specializes in designing high-performance chips used in global data infrastructure, including cloud computing, AI, enterprise networking, 5G carrier networks and automotive systems.
    Nvidia recently
    committed to a $2 billion investment into Marvell. Nvidia is also investing billions into other firms developing photonics technology, which use light to transmit data. That process is said to be more efficient than the current method of transferring data with electricity.
