What happened

Euronews Next spoke to Asus' co-CEO about Nvidia-powered AI laptops and the company's plan to export its 'AI City' model.

Why it matters

When the Taiwanese tech company ASUS took to the stage of the Computex conference this year, the conversation quickly moved beyond laptops.

Common ground

The company’s co-CEO, Samson Hu, told Euronews Next about a future in which the East Asian island nation becomes more than just the semiconductor hub and transforms into an "AI city" and a model for the rest of the world.
