The European Union is set to review Nvidia's proposed $700 million acquisition of Run:ai, an AI workload management startup. This review follows a referral request from Italian competition regulators, citing potential risks to local competition and trade within the EU's Single Market. The EU's acceptance of this referral indicates that the deal may significantly impact competition in the relevant markets.
Nvidia must now formally notify the EU about the transaction, which could delay the merger process by weeks or even months if deeper investigations are warranted. The scrutiny reflects a broader trend of increased regulatory oversight on major tech acquisitions, particularly in the rapidly evolving AI sector. The outcome of this review will be crucial in determining how competition in AI-related markets is shaped moving forward.
