Samsung Commits $1B to Helix’s Digital Infrastructure Strategy

Helix Digital Infrastructure and KKR announced that Samsung has committed $1 billion to Helix, an AI infrastructure company formed by KKR this past June to help meet the growing infrastructure needs of hyperscalers, through its long-duration capital fund.

Samsung’s investment builds on the more than $10 billion of capital committed to the Helix strategy at its launch by founding investors including KKR, the Kuwait Investment Authority, NVIDIA and Vistra. The new commitment will provide additional long-duration capital to support Helix’s strategy of investing in and delivering the data centers, power, connectivity and related infrastructure that are required to support growing AI demand.

“Samsung’s commitment is a strong vote of confidence in Helix’s strategy and further deepens the long-term capital base we’ve built to meet the scale of AI infrastructure demand,” said Adam Selipsky, CEO and co-founder, Helix. “As one of the world’s leading technology companies, Samsung brings unique capabilities that we expect will benefit Helix and its customers, and we look forward to working together to accelerate the deployment of next-generation digital infrastructure for hyperscalers around the world.”
