Mediatek Rick Tsai’s COMPUTEX keynote is cancelled
TAITRA (the organization behind Computex) has cancelled MediaTek CEO Dr. Rick Tsai’s Computex 2026 keynote, which had been scheduled for June 3. The official notice only says the event was dropped due to scheduling adjustments, with no further explanation from the organizer.
[Activity Update] Cancellation of MediaTek Keynote at COMPUTEX 2026
Many of our attendees have been eagerly looking forward to the keynote address by Dr. Rick Tsai, Vice Chairman and CEO of MediaTek. However, due to scheduling adjustments, we regret to announce that the MediaTek Keynote, originally scheduled for June 3, has been cancelled.
We sincerely apologize for any disappointment or inconvenience this change may cause to your plans.
We warmly invite you to stay tuned for the extraordinary Keynote from visionary leaders at Qualcomm, Marvell, Intel, and NXP, as well as this year’s Forum. We truly appreciate the continued passion and support from the global technology community for this event.
That change leaves more room for NVIDIA’s June 1 presentation to dominate early Computex coverage. TAITRA has already confirmed Jensen Huang’s keynote for June 1 at the Taipei Music Center, one day before the main Computex 2026 show opens on June 2. The event is called GTC Taipei page also places Huang’s keynote ahead of its June 2 to June 4 conference sessions. This keynote is not officially part of Computex, so I’m surprised that TAITRA acknowledged it later.
All eyes on NVIDIA N1 announcement?
NVIDIA and MediaTek are working on an Arm-based laptop SoC that combines CPU and NVIDIA GPU technology, with Dell and Lenovo among the expected launch partners. Jensen Huang also previously described NVIDIA’s MediaTek project as a low-power, high-performance SoC aimed at AI computers, which fits the N1 and N1X rumors that have been circulating for months. We already have a fruit of this collaboration in DGX Spark systems powered by nearly identical GB10 Blackwell Superchip.
The MediaTek CEO keynote with Dr. Rick Tsai at Computex 2026 was canceled "due to unforeseen scheduling adjustments by the speaker" 🤔
Maybe NVIDIA wants to have all the spotlights for N1X by itself?
