Scaling AI Infrastructure for the Agentic Era | Charlie Kawwas, Broadcom | RAISE Summit 2026

Charlie Kawwas, Tony Kim

Frontier artificial intelligence laboratories are increasingly partnering with Broadcom to deploy purpose-built XPU architectures that replace general-purpose hardware, enabling custom designs that eliminate efficiency losses and proprietary ecosystem taxes. This strategic shift supports a massive scaling trajectory where Broadcom projects over $100 billion in revenue by 2027 while delivering 16 times the current compute capacity through modular chiplet technology. As major clients contract for gigawatt-scale power expansions, the collaboration prioritizes rapid time-to-market for specialized "agentic AI" workloads while addressing supply chain constraints through new advanced packaging facilities.
