Huawei Seeks to Export AI Chips to Middle East and Southeast Asia
MIDDLE EAST AND SOUTHEAST ASIA, JUL 10 – Huawei aims to expand in AI chip markets dominated by US firms by selling thousands of older Ascend 910B chips to Middle East and Southeast Asia despite export restrictions.
- Huawei Technologies plans to export limited quantities of its older Ascend 910B AI processors to countries in the Gulf region and Southeast Asia in 2025 as it seeks entry into markets currently led by U.S. competitors like Nvidia.
- This effort follows U.S. export controls excluding Nvidia from China's datacenter market, leaving Huawei as a key domestic competitor seeking new markets amid manufacturing limits.
- Huawei has engaged with interested parties in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Thailand, but has yet to secure any agreements; discussions in Thailand remain uncertain, and there has been minimal interest from groups in the UAE.
- A senior official said Huawei will produce about 200,000 AI chips this year, mostly for China, while acknowledging these chips lag at least one generation behind Nvidia's.
- Huawei’s outreach raises U.S. concerns about Chinese AI infrastructure expansion, motivating policymakers to maintain American technology leadership amid global ambitions.
