At the OCP Global Summit held in San Jose on October 15, 2026, NVIDIA unveiled the NVIDIA MGX AI Factory ecosystem and partner list for its next-generation Vera Rubin platform. Chinese home appliance giant Midea Group appeared on this list.
MGX is an open hardware architecture ecosystem built by NVIDIA around Blackwell, Vera Rubin, and subsequent AI computing platforms, covering server manufacturing, liquid cooling, power supplies, and data center infrastructure. As rack power density increases and 45°C high-temperature liquid cooling becomes a new standard, ecosystem partners can participate early in thermal management specification alignment and system-level validation.
According to Sina Tech, citing people familiar with the matter, the cooperation between Midea and NVIDIA mainly revolves around liquid cooling-related fields. No specific contract value, technical details, or formal commercial agreement status has been disclosed yet; this information is based on media reports from unofficial channels.
