Google — Taipei AI Engineering Hub

In November 2025, Google inaugurated its largest AI infrastructure hardware engineering center outside the United States in Taipei. This flagship hub focuses on the design, testing, and optimization of custom AI accelerators (TPUs) and high-performance networking hardware that powers Google’s global data center fleet. Housing hundreds of specialized engineers, the center serves as the “nerve center” connecting Taiwan’s premier semiconductor manufacturing (TSMC) with Google’s large-scale AI deployment. While not a traditional hyperscale data center, the Taipei hub is a critical node in the global AI supply chain, ensuring that next-generation hardware is engineered for the extreme power and density requirements of the AI era.
