Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang announced the company’s first industrial AI cloud platform will be built in Germany, unveiled during his keynote at the VivaTech 2025 conference in Paris. The platform will integrate AI and robotics to support manufacturers like BMW and Mercedes-Benz, streamlining product design simulations and logistics management.
In a broader push into Europe, Huang revealed Nvidia will expand tech centers in seven countries and launch 20 large-scale “AI factories” across the region. These facilities aim to accelerate the development, training, and deployment of AI models. “In just two years, we will increase the amount of AI computing capacity in Europe by a factor of 10,” Huang stated, emphasizing Europe's renewed focus on sovereign AI infrastructure.
The announcement follows the European Commission’s commitment in March to invest $20 billion in four AI factories, aiming to reduce dependency on external AI capabilities. Nvidia also plans to open its compute marketplace to European firms and support multilingual AI model development and drug discovery for companies like Novo Nordisk.
A new partnership with European AI startup Mistral will enable businesses to run advanced applications using 18,000 cutting-edge Nvidia chips. Huang stressed that “sovereign AI is an imperative—no company, industry, or nation can outsource its intelligence.”
Beyond AI, Huang touched on quantum computing, calling it a transformative technology nearing an inflection point. He believes quantum systems will soon handle problems beyond the scope of even Nvidia’s most advanced AI chips—a shift from his more skeptical remarks earlier this year.
Huang’s global tour continues to spotlight the competitive urgency for nations and industries to invest in AI and quantum infrastructure or risk falling behind.
