Nvidia and Deutsche Telekom have announced a significant €1 billion partnership to establish an ‘AI factory’ in Munich, Germany. This initiative aims to enhance Germany’s AI computing power by 50% and support European manufacturers with advanced AI infrastructure. The ‘Industrial AI Cloud’ will utilize over 1,000 Nvidia DGX B200 systems and RTX Pro Servers, equipped with up to 10,000 Blackwell GPUs, to offer AI inferencing and other services to German companies. The project aligns with the European Union’s push to foster homegrown technological solutions and reduce reliance on foreign infrastructure. It stands apart from the EU’s AI gigafactory initiative and is expected to commence operations in early 2026. Deutsche Telekom will provide the physical infrastructure, while SAP contributes its Business Technology platform. This collaboration underscores the strategic shift towards developing domestically operated technology to serve European industries.
