Summary
NVIDIA and Korea’s Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) are expanding their collaboration across the country’s sovereign AI ecosystem, from AI semiconductors and data center infrastructure to talent, startups, models, agents and security. The collaboration lays the groundwork for Korean NPU and XPU companies to explore participation in the NVIDIA NVLink Fusion ecosystem, and includes NVIDIA training and certification programs, hackathons and technical seminars to strengthen GPU utilization. Through Korea’s AI for All initiative, NVIDIA will collaborate with three selected consortia and four leading Korean foundation model builders, using NVIDIA Dynamo software to optimize and scale AI inference. In addition, NVIDIA today announced a collaboration with SK Telecom and Rebellions, supported by MSIT, to advance sovereign AI infrastructure for Korean models and workloads with NVIDIA NVLink Fusion.
