NVIDIA is in talks with Australian AI cloud service provider Firmus Grid to inject hundreds of millions of dollars. This follows Firmus's failed IPO plan, which valued the company at $30 billion, and its current pursuit of at least $2 billion in private financing. NVIDIA's move aims to tangibly support the AI ecosystem, after its previous verbal endorsement of CoreWeave failed to stabilize the market.

NVIDIA has participated in Firmus's three most recent funding rounds and is one of its significant shareholders. According to The Information's Tuesday report, this potential investment is NVIDIA's latest effort to bolster the entire ecosystem amidst a large-scale sell-off in AI stocks and a deteriorating financing environment for AI data center operators.
