Reuters reported that Samsung Electronics will contribute $500 million and other Samsung affiliates another $500 million. Helix plans to combine Nvidia computing with Samsung memory and storage as it develops data-center, energy and network infrastructure.
KKR said Helix already had more than $10 billion of capital committed before Samsung's participation. The arrangement gives Samsung exposure to the infrastructure layer of AI demand, beyond selling individual components.
