Capital Raising
AsiaSouth Korean portal operator Naver closed a 1.3 trillion won (about $1 billion) private placement with Nvidia, which acquired a 4.13% stake. The proceeds fund Naver's GPU-based AI infrastructure, starting with the Gak Sejong data center, to expand its GPU-as-a-service business.
Leadership read: Fresh capital is a hiring signal before it is anything else. For Naver Corp., a raise in the sector funds leadership depth, scale, go-to-market and operational rigour, rather than any single appointment. Watch where Naver Corp. hires first across Asia; that is where the capital is really pointed.
