Top 20 NVIDIA Customer
Stories in AsiaBased on NVIDIA's case studies (242 total, filtered for Asia via
the official site and web searches as of October 6, 2025), I curated the top 20
Asian stories by recency (2024–2025), impact (e.g., measurable outcomes like
30x efficiency), and diversity (e.g., sectors like manufacturing, healthcare).
Repetition is minimal—most are unique, with updates (e.g., Foxconn's 2023 story
refreshed in 2025 for EV focus). I prioritized Asia-Pacific (Taiwan, Singapore,
South Korea, Japan, India, Philippines, etc.), excluding global ones with minor
Asian ties. These showcase AI's role in abundance (e.g., efficient factories
for food security, healthcare for underserved populations), tying to your
"schools engineers" vision and SHELFF framework.The list is ranked by

Classifying the Top 20 for
Maximizing AI Asia Win-Wins Over the Next 4 WeeksTo maximize win-wins (e.g.,
economic collaboration, shared AI infrastructure), classify by sectors with
high regional synergy (e.g., semiconductors for supply chains, agri for food
security). Over the next 4 weeks (October–November 2025), leverage APEC Korea
(November 15–16, Busan) with Trump/Huang attendance—focus on bilateral MOUs
(e.g., Japan-PH agri AI, India-Singapore telecom). Classify into 4 groups for
targeted outreach (e.g., via NVIDIA Inception for startups, DLI for
upskilling). This fosters trust (65% Asia population) and abundance (your
SHELFF).
