A strategic project to strengthen Europe’s digital autonomy
Deutsche Telekom and NVIDIA have announced the launch of a new industrial artificial intelligence platform, called Industrial AI Cloud, which is set to become operational in early 2026. The initiative combines Deutsche Telekom’s advanced infrastructure with NVIDIA’s AI technology to empower companies to build industrial applications powered by artificial intelligence.
The project is described as a strategic step toward Europe’s digital sovereignty and a major milestone in the digital transformation of manufacturing.

“We need to build, here in Germany, an ecosystem that enables our industry to take part in this next-generation wave of industrialization,” said Tim Höttges, CEO of Deutsche Telekom.
Hosted in data centers across Germany, the platform will deploy up to 10,000 GPUs, enabling companies to develop AI-driven applications for digital simulation, robotics, and production optimization.
“These computers are the modern-day factories,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “They are factories just like car factories or any industrial factory in Germany — only these are factories of intelligence.”
Major industry players such as SAP, Siemens, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Agile Robots, and Wandelbots will use the new platform to design and test AI solutions for industrial production.
By merging Deutsche Telekom’s infrastructure capabilities with NVIDIA’s cutting-edge hardware, the Industrial AI Cloud aims to deliver a secure, scalable industrial platform that supports Europe’s innovation in artificial intelligence.
