    Marvell Clinches $12.2B Custom AI Chip Deal with Google Ahead of Q2 Print

    Question

    Marvell Clinches $12.2B Custom AI Chip Deal with Google Ahead of Q2 Print

    Direct answer

    Marvell Technology confirmed a $12.2 billion deal with Google to supply custom AI inference chips. The contract represents a critical step in hyperscalers deploying application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) to optimize power and cost efficiency for inference workloads. The contract could scale up to $120 billion over seven years. The announcement comes directly ahead of Marvell's Q2 fiscal 2027 earnings release on August 27, placing focus on custom silicon execution timelines.
