Nvidia’s Partners to Invest US$4 Million in Queretaro

Two Mexican partners of Nvidia plan to invest between US$2 million and US$4 million to deploy technology infrastructure for data centers in Queretaro, says Marcio Aguiar, Director of Enterprise Division, Nvidia Latin America.

“Mexico is positioning itself, and for us, it is an honor to have a point on the global map,” says Aguiar. He emphasizes the relevance of the initiative in strengthening national computing capacity and supporting the deployment of AI solutions.

Queretaro has emerged as the country’s primary digital infrastructure hub, driven by its energy availability, strong industrial connectivity, and regulatory environment that favors technology investment. In recent years, the state has concentrated a growing portion of Mexico’s computing capacity, attracting global corporations such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), which announced a US$5 billion expansion in January 2025 to increase its regional footprint.

The upcoming project aims to increase Mexico’s technological autonomy in data processing and AI model training. The centers will integrate graphics processing units (GPUs) designed by Nvidia, which are critical for high-performance computing tasks such as large-scale data analytics and machine learning.

Aguiar says that the new facilities will not be operated directly by Nvidia. Instead, Nvidia’s local partners will handle the deployment, operation, and maintenance of the infrastructure. “The announcement in Mexico will include data centers with Nvidia GPUs to meet the country’s computational demand, but these are announcements to be made by our partners. This is not an Nvidia data center,” Aguiar says.

These developments align with the growth of Mexico’s data center industry, driven by business digitalization, e-commerce expansion, and the adoption of cloud services. According to International Data Corporation (IDC), the digital infrastructure market in Mexico is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of over 12% through 2027, with concentration in states offering reliable energy and operational stability such as Queretaro, Jalisco, and Nuevo Leon.

The integration of high-performance computing infrastructure is intended to meet the rising demand for intensive processing in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, and telecommunications. Nvidia’s GPUs significantly reduce processing times for simulations, predictive analytics, and industrial optimization models, capabilities that are increasingly essential for corporate competitiveness.

Economic Outlook and Constraints

Despite the momentum of technological investments, structural challenges may limit expansion capacity. Julio Ruiz, Chief Economist, Citi Mexico, says that Mexico’s economic growth could remain below potential due to uncertainty surrounding proposed constitutional amendments, the ongoing review of the USMCA, and infrastructure bottlenecks, including limited electrical network capacity and deteriorating security conditions.

Energy availability remains a decisive factor for large-scale data center operations, particularly those incorporating GPUs and AI workloads that demand high and stable power supplies. The federal government has been urged by multiple business chambers to accelerate the modernization of national transmission networks to sustain the country’s attractiveness for high-performance computing projects.
