In NVIDIA’s third major collaboration announcement in India this month, it will be collaborating with IT major Infosys to help enterprises drive productivity gains with generative AI applications and solutions. Infosys plans to set up an NVIDIA centre of excellence where 50,000 employees will be trained and certified on NVIDIA’s AI technologies.
As part of this alliance, NVIDIA’s AI Enterprise ecosystem of models, tools, runtimes, and GPU systems will be brought to Infosys’s AI-first offering Topaz.
Through the integration, Infosys will create offerings customers can adopt, to easily integrate generative AI into their businesses, the Bengaluru-based IT major said in a statement.
Infosys uses full-stack NVIDIA generative AI platform, including hardware and enterprise-grade software across its business operations, and helps customers create generative AI applications.
The companies said this collaboration will extend to digitalisation applications, with a focus on developing solutions for enterprise use cases across 3D workflows, design collaboration, digital twin, world simulation and others. The two companies are also co-developing AI-powered solutions in areas like 5G, cybersecurity and energy transition.
Jensen Huang, NVIDIA’s CEO said that generative AI will drive the next wave of enterprise productivity gains. “The NVIDIA AI Enterprise ecosystem is ramping quickly to provide the platform for generative AI. Together, NVIDIA and Infosys will create an expert workforce to help businesses use this platform to build custom applications and solutions,” he said.
Infosys Chairman and co-founder Nandan Nilekani said in a statement that the company is transforming into an AI-first company to better provide AI-based services.
“Our clients are also looking at complex AI use cases that can drive significant business value across their entire value chain…Infosys Topaz offerings and solutions are complementary to NVIDIA’s core stack. By combining our strengths and training 50,000 of our workforce on NVIDIA AI technology, we are creating end-to-end industry-leading AI solutions that will help enterprises on their journey to become AI-first,” he added.
Earlier this month, when Huang was in India, the company had announced partnerships with Reliance as well as the Tata Group. With Jio, NVIDIA will help with end-to-end AI supercomputer technologies including CPU, GPU, networking, and AI operating systems and frameworks for building the AI models, and Jio will manage and maintain the AI cloud infrastructure.
With the Tata Group, NVIDIA will help build and process generative AI applications as well as upskill the six lakh-plus employees of TCS in AI; it will work with Tata Motors to deploy AI across design, styling, engineering, simulation testing and autonomous vehicle capabilities; and also help Tata Communications build AI infra.
