Nvidias belief in Israel was further demonstrated when it chose the country as the home for its supercomputer, Israel-1. The company also acquired Israeli chipmaker Mellanox in 2019 for $6.9 billion. However, Nvidia faces challenges in recruiting talent in Israel due to high demand and competition.
