Semiconductor leader MediaTek is expanding its focus beyond its stronghold in smartphones and consumer electronics, placing a major strategic bet on the rapidly growing automotive and high-performance computing (HPC) space. According to recent insights shared by Anku Jain, Managing Director of MediaTek India, the company is actively investing in new growth engines such as automotive chipsets, next-generation AI computing, and advanced connectivity platforms. This marks a significant shift as global chipmakers race to capture opportunities in software-defined vehicles and intelligent mobility. A major highlight of this push is MediaTek’s deepening partnership with NVIDIA, one of the world’s leading players in accelerated computing. The collaboration has already resulted in cutting-edge innovations like NVIDIA-partnered superchips, combining powerful AI processing with MediaTek’s expertise in system design. As the automotive industry evolves into a technology-driven ecosystem, vehicles are increasingly becoming “computers on wheels,” requiring advanced semiconductors for AI-enabled infotainment, driver assistance, connectivity, and real-time processing. MediaTek’s growing presence in this sector reflects the broader momentum in global tech supply chains- where innovation in chips, AI, and mobility is shaping the next wave of industrial transformation. This development is highly relevant for the Europe-India innovation corridor, as automotive tech, AI chips, and next-gen mobility platforms are key sectors where European and Indian ecosystems are increasingly collaborating. With India emerging as a major hub for semiconductor design and Europe accelerating its automotive and AI ambitions, partnerships like MediaTek-NVIDIA highlight the kind of cross-regional technology shifts that will drive future startup opportunities, investments, and industrial cooperation across both markets.
