Background & analysis
On November 13, 2026, Techmeme carried a Reuters report revealing findings from a review of Chinese contracts, public disclosures, and other documents. The review identified more than $3.2B in compute projects that are being built or planned around Nvidia GPUs restricted by US export controls. The report also notes that Nvidia has stated that US export controls have effectively shut it out of China's AI data-centre market, while the projects surfaced in Reuters' review indicate that the related compute infrastructure market keeps operating even as the chip export ban remains in place. At this stage, the story has only surfaced the findings of that document review and the statements from the parties involved, with no further public details available on how the situation may proceed next.
