Marvell shares spike amid report SoftBank explored possible takeover
Investing.com -- Microsoft has received approval from the United States to export Nvidia’s advanced AI chips to the United Arab Emirates, marking a significant development in the company’s Middle East expansion plans.
Brad Smith, Microsoft’s president, confirmed on Monday that in September, the tech giant became "the first company to receive a license under the Trump administration" to ship Nvidia’s AI chips to the UAE, according to a report from the Financial Times.
The approval comes after US President Donald Trump reached an agreement in May with UAE president Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed al-Nahyan to establish an AI data center campus in Abu Dhabi.
Microsoft’s planned project had previously faced obstacles due to the Department of Commerce’s export controls on powerful Nvidia chips essential for operating advanced AI systems.
