Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, speaking with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, expressed optimism that Germany can take a leading role in the industrial application of Artificial Intelligence. Huang believes the field could be reordered and even a "complete restart" is possible. He also emphasized the need for swift action, stating that Germany will not get another chance.

This comes as Huang announced investments in Germany, and follows similar comments from Blackrock CEO Larry Fink, who also sees great opportunities for the German location. Chancellor Merz is set to host an investment summit in Berlin, aiming to turn expressed optimism into concrete investments.
