CES 2026: Roland Busch & Jensen Huang, Siemens & NVIDIA
Siemens and NVIDIA

Bringing AI to the physical world

Together, Siemens and NVIDIA are creating the Industrial AI operating system for the physical world. With a strategic partnership focused on industrial AI, digital twins, AI infrastructure and the industrial metaverse, we are transforming – and accelerating – every facet of industry: how cities are built and transportation networks run, how products make it to market, and how intelligence itself is created.

Why it matters to you

The partnership between Siemens and NVIDIA enables a more resilient, sustainable, scalable future — a future where companies across every industry can increase efficiency, improve product quality, and adapt swiftly to changing market demands.

And it comes exactly when we need it:

  • Factories can’t find enough skilled workers.
  • Glocalization is increasing demand for distributed production.
  • Urbanization is stretching existing infrastructure to its limits.
  • The planet requires more sustainable solutions.
  • And AI workloads strain the very systems that support them.

Siemens and NVIDIA are empowering companies to respond.

What makes the partnership unique

Together, we are turning the promise of AI into real-world performance: increased efficiency across the industrial and infrastructure lifecycle. Deeper collaboration between humans and machines. And better, faster decision-making based on real-time data.

“Together, we are building the Industrial AI operating system — redefining how the physical world is designed, built, and run.”

Roland Busch, CEO of Siemens

Industrial AI in practice

Our Industrial AI operating system creates business impact everywhere from the factories where products are made to the factories where AI workloads run. It is transforming the end-to-end industrial value chain.

AI-native chip design

By running Siemens’ Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools, along with the agentic capabilities of Fuse, on NVIDIA GPUs, we significantly accelerate the development of those very GPUs. We are also integrating NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries, Physics NeMo, and Nemotron into our EDA stack to enable AI-native chip design, verification, and manufacturing readiness. The result: shorter design cycles, greater yields, and more reliable outcomes.

Main assets of substation are connective. With the combination of the digitally connected Sensformer transformers and the new Sensgear all substation transmission assets are now fully connective. All devices are connected via a smart and robust Internet of Things (IoT) gateway that securely transmits the required information to a cloud-based storage and visualization platform.

AI-accelerated portfolio

Running Siemens’ design and simulation portfolio on NVIDIA’s GPUs shortens design cycles, accelerates complex simulations, and improves yield while reducing energy consumption. And by layering an AI brain on top of industrial software and software-defined automation, we enable AI-driven adaptive manufacturing, where digital twins can be continually optimized and validated insights can be translated into real-world changes.

Next-generation AI factories

As AI workloads grow, data centers are evolving into AI factories – where power, automation, and digital infrastructure must work together seamlessly to deliver performance, efficiency, and resiliency. We are co-creating the reference architecture for gigawatt-scale AI infrastructure, maximizing tokens per watt and setting the standard for how AI is powered, automated, and deployed globally.

Shared innovation

Siemens and NVIDIA use our respective offerings to accelerate and optimize each other’s operations, acting as a mutual customer zero. After demonstrating concrete proof of impact and scalability, we bring those offerings to our customers across industries. Among the innovations we’re working toward: autonomous digital twins that deliver real-time engineering and optimization without human intervention.

The industrial metaverse

With AI, digital twins and software defined automation, Siemens and NVIDIA are shaping the industrial metaverse.

Timeline

The origins of the Siemens and NVIDIA partnership

Where it all began: The relationship between Siemens and NVIDIA began in 2022, when the companies joined forces to bring the industrial metaverse to life.

In our first few years, we saw broad adoption of the industrial metaverse in R&D innovation and manufacturing process planning. And now, as AI transforms every corner of the physical world, our partnership spans every layer of the transformation.

Explore the timeline below to discover how we got here.
