AWS plans $5B AI data center investments in South Korea's Incheon and Gyeonggi Province

Digital assets surge as Bitcoin hits $115,476 while Solana maintains momentum at $202 — institutional eyes turn to emerging opportunities.

The Institutional Shift

Wall Street's traditional skepticism melts faster than ice in a crypto mining rig as major players recognize the diversification potential. Bitcoin's store-of-value narrative strengthens while Solana's scalability attracts development capital — creating an unexpected power duo.

The Presale Angle

CTK's presale enters the equation as the secret sauce, offering institutions early access to what could be the next infrastructure play. Because nothing warms a fund manager's heart like getting in before the retail herd — except maybe finding a legitimate tax write-off.

Market Dynamics

While traditional finance debates yield curves and inflation targets, crypto markets simply bypass the bureaucracy. The combination of established giants and emerging protocols creates a hedge that even the most conservative allocators can't ignore — though they'll still charge you 2-and-20 for the privilege.

Lee encouraged AWS to bolster its partnerships with Korean firms

According to Lee, the new AWS investment will support South Korea’s efforts toward economic rebound and long-term sustainability. He announced, “The key to that growth lies in advanced science and technology, and at the center of that is AI data. We are very pleased that Amazon Web Services has chosen to build Korea’s future together with us.”

Lee noted that Amazon’s investment demonstrated the firm’s faith in Korea’s AI and IT strength and supports the government’s push for AI implementation. He’s urged the enterprise to establish ties with domestic businesses.

Meanwhile, during the morning session of the APEC CEO Summit, Matt Garman, the CEO of Amazon, reaffirmed AWS’s dedication to the Asia-Pacific region, stating that its AI and cloud investments across 14 APEC countries will exceed $40 billion from 2025 to 2028.

He remarked, “These investments will contribute an additional $45 billion to the US (gross domestic product) while benefiting all APEC economies.”  He also told the audience that AI agents represent the real breakthrough everyone has been anticipating, as they’re capable of decision-making, taking action, and adapting to business needs over time.

Lee recently met with executives from seven international companies, whose total investment in South Korea over the next five years is expected to be approximately $9 billion, including AWS. Multiple companies are expanding their tech and AI operations in the country. 

For instance, the Busan plant of Renault Korea will be converted to produce electric vehicles, while Siemens Healthineers expands its Pohang ultrasound component line, making Korea a regional center. Amkor, Corning, Umicore, and Air Liquide also pursue their advanced development projects in Korea to deepen their worldwide intellectual property protection networks based on chip manufacturing materials & drive the production technologies space.

Meta previously revealed that it will invest $14 billion

Meta has stated that it will invest $14 billion in AI native ecosystems, funding startups, regional data centers, and cloud provider cooperation by 2027. Over the last year, Meta has reoriented its strategy around generative AI, proprietary chips, and data expansion, as exemplified by the launch of its Llama language models and increased U.S. AI infrastructure spending.

The company’s executives have stated at multiple Asian tech events that the company will invest more than $14 billion in AI-native ecosystems, including funding startups, developing regional data centers, and collaborating with cloud providers.

A specific allocation of $3 billion has been set aside for startups across India, Singapore, South Korea, and Vietnam. They also claimed that sizable computing centers for AI will be established or co-invested in at least three APAC countries. With an open-source model of training and deployment, a scalable site is currently under construction in Hyderabad to serve as the company’s lab and production facility.
