Siemens and NVIDIA Expand Partnership to Build the Industrial AI Operating System
CES 2026: Jensen Huang (on the right), founder and CEO of NVIDIA, and Roland Busch (on the left), President and CEO of Siemens AG, expanding their Partnership to Build the Industrial AI Operating System.
To support development, NVIDIA will provide AI infrastructure, simulation libraries, models, frameworks and blueprints, while Siemens will commit hundreds of industrial AI experts and leading hardware and software.
“Together, we are building the Industrial AI operating system – redefining how the physical world is designed, built, and run - to scale AI and create real-world impact,” said Roland Busch, President and CEO of Siemens AG. “By combining NVIDIA’s leadership in accelerated computing and AI platforms with Siemens’ leading hardware, software, industrial AI and data, we’re empowering customers to develop products faster with the most comprehensive digital twins, adapt production in real time, and accelerate technologies from chips to AI factories.”
“Generative AI and accelerated computing have
ignited a new industrial revolution, transforming digital twins from passive
simulations into the active intelligence of the physical world,” said Jensen
Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “Our partnership with Siemens fuses the
world's leading industrial software with NVIDIA's full-stack AI platform to
close the gap between ideas and reality — empowering industries to simulate
complex systems in software, then seamlessly automate and operate them in the
physical world.”
Accelerating
the Entire Industrial Lifecycle
Siemens and
NVIDIA will work together to build AI-accelerated industrial solutions across
the full lifecycle of products and production, enabling faster innovation,
continuous optimization, and more resilient, sustainable manufacturing. The
companies aim to build the world’s first fully AI-driven, adaptive
manufacturing sites globally, starting in 2026 with the Siemens Electronics
Factory in Erlangen, Germany, as the first blueprint.
Using an “AI
Brain,” – powered by software-defined automation and industrial operations
software, combined with NVIDIA Omniverse libraries and NVIDIA AI infrastructure factories
can continuously analyze their digital twins, test improvements virtually, and
turn validated insights into operational changes on the shopfloor.
This results
in faster, more reliable decision-making from design to deployment – raising
productivity while reducing commissioning time and risk. The companies aim to
scale these capabilities across key verticals and several customers are already
evaluating some of the capabilities including Foxconn, HD Hyundai, KION Group,
and PepsiCo.
With the partnership expansion, Siemens will complete
GPU acceleration across its entire simulation portfolio and expand support for NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries and AI physics models, enabling customers to run larger,
more accurate simulations faster. Building on that foundation, the
companies will advance toward generative simulation by using
NVIDIA PhysicsNeMo and open models to provide autonomous
digital twins that deliver real-time engineering design and autonomous
optimization.
Advancing Electronic Design Automation for
Accelerated Computing
By applying
industrial AI operating logic to semiconductors and AI factories, Siemens and
NVIDIA will accelerate the engines of the AI revolution. Starting with semiconductor
design and building on NVIDIA’s extensive use of Siemens’ tools, Siemens will
integrate NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries, PhysicsNeMo and GPU acceleration across its
EDA portfolio with a focus on verification, layout, and process optimization – to
target 2-10x speed-ups in key workflows.
The
partnership will also add AI-assisted capabilities such as layout guidance,
debug support, and circuit optimization to boost engineering productivity while
meeting strict manufacturability requirements. Together, these capabilities will
advance AI-native engines for design, verification, manufacturability and
digital-twin approaches to shorten design cycles, improve yield, and deliver
more reliable outcomes.
Designing the Next
Generation of AI Factories
Siemens and
NVIDIA will also jointly develop a repeatable blueprint for next-generation AI
factories –
accelerating the industrial AI revolution and providing the high-performance
foundation for their AI-accelerated industrial portfolios.
This
blueprint will balance the next-generation high-density computing demands for
power, cooling and automation while ensuring technologies are well positioned
for both speed and efficiency - optimizing the full lifecycle, from planning
and design to deployment and operations.
The combined
effort bridges NVIDIA’s AI platform roadmap, AI infrastructure expertise,
partner ecosystem and the accelerated power of NVIDIA Omniverse library-based
simulation with Siemens’ strengths in power infrastructure, electrification, grid
integration, automation, and digital twins. Together, the companies aim to
accelerate deployment, increase energy efficiency, and improve resilience for
industrial-scale AI infrastructure worldwide.
Optimizing Operations Through Shared Innovation
Siemens and
NVIDIA aim to accelerate each others’ operations and portfolio by implementing
technologies on their own systems before scaling them across industries. NVIDIA
will assess Siemens offerings to streamline and optimize its own operations and
offerings, and Siemens will assess its own
workloads and collaborate with NVIDIA to accelerate them and integrate AI into
Siemens’ customer portfolio. By accelerating one another and improving their
own systems, Siemens and NVIDIA are creating concrete proof points of value and
scalability for customers.
