Así acelera el 'efecto Nvidia' a las 'start up' españolas

Nvidia continues to be a startup company at its core, according to its CEO Jensen Huang. To maintain its roots and essence, the company supports and backs AI start-ups and scale-ups from various countries, aiming for them to become part of its ecosystem and help accelerate their technologies. Nvidia achieves this through its Inception program, offering tools and capabilities for these companies to enhance their work in high-performance computing, AI, and continuous innovation.

Dr. Angel Alberich-Bayarri, the founder of Quibim, highlights the value of being part of Inception, as it allows the company to be close to the latest advances in AI acceleration, deep learning, high-performance computing, and explore new applications of these technologies in medicine. Quibim can use cutting-edge technology to accelerate model training, validation, and execution due to the rapid growth in data volume and complexity in the medical imaging field.

The company can access preference pricing for acquiring infrastructure, such as Nvidia DGX H200, which has high GPU memory capacity suitable for large-scale AI workloads. Multiverse Computing, another Spanish startup in the Inception program, is one of the most promising projects in AI and computing worldwide. The company has secured up to 500 million euros to further accelerate its technology for ultra-compressing large language models (LLMs) within small systems and devices.

Nvidia's collaboration with Multiverse helps optimize its AI models for accelerated computing infrastructure, reinforce preparation for production environments, and accelerate deployment in data centers, enterprises, and edge devices. Multiverse has already benefited from technical validations of its Pulsar-16B model by Nvidia, confirming comparable reasoning performance to 30B-parameter leader models with a smaller 16.15B-parameter architecture. eVoost AI, a proptech startup in Abu Dhabi and Spain, has also joined Nvidia's Inception program.

The company's focus is on selling properties and houses through AI, addressing a real demand for personalized services. Nvidia looks for startups that build real AI on its technology, not just layers on third-party models. eVoost AI develops its own language model and a sovereign AI platform tailored to a vertical use case with measurable impact.

Nvidia is interested in eVoost's unique model training on GPUs, a prepared architecture for regulated and sovereign environments, and a real-world impact approach rather than a laboratory setting.
