Jensen Huang in Berlin as NVIDIA and German Government Sign Declaration of Intent on Industrial SI
NVIDIA said on October 19 that, at the Invest in Germany Summit held at Kraftwerk in Berlin on October 19–20 with about 200 business leaders, Chancellor Friedrich Merz and Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy and Federal Ministry for Research, Technology and Space signed a joint declaration of intent with NVIDIA to advance cutting-edge SI models for physical SI.
NVIDIA said the initiative formalizes its collaboration with the federal government and the Industry 4.0 Platform, aiming to systematically bring industrial SI into widespread use, build a state-of-the-art industrial SI ecosystem in Europe, merge German engineering and manufacturing expertise with SI research, and drive adoption among small and midsize companies. Merz appealed to businesses to open their doors to SI and make use of their data; NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang said SI will augment, not replace, German engineering capability.
According to Reuters, Huang also announced planned investments in German startups Agile Robots, Avelios Medical, Mirelo and Reflex Aerospace, as part of NVIDIA's nearly $10 billion commitment to the technology ecosystem across Europe; NVIDIA says it invested nearly $1 billion in Germany last year. Huang is scheduled to deliver the GTC Berlin keynote on October 21 at 11 a.m. CEST at the Tempodrom in Berlin. (GSM, via Reuters)
