Deutsche Telekom and Nvidia (NVDA.O) will join forces to build an industrial artificial intelligence cloud for European manufacturers in Germany, the first of its kind, the companies said on Friday, 13th June.
They have stated that the implementation of the industrial AI cloud is to take place by 2026 at the latest.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made known the planned site in Germany earlier this week and met with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Friday.
Deutsche Telekom will provide infrastructure and be responsible for data centres, operations, sales, security and AI solutions while Nvidia will supply 10,000 chips for the site, the statement said.
"Investments in strategic AI infrastructures are central to our country's innovative strength," Merz said in a statement following the meeting with Huang.
"We expressly welcome the commitment of Nvidia and its partners. This cooperation can be an important step for Germany's digital sovereignty and economic future," he added.
