IT Home, November 9 news: NVIDIA today (November 9) held the NVIDIA AI Day event in Seoul, South Korea, and announced multiple cooperations with the South Korean government and enterprises. IT Home summarizes them as follows:
NVIDIA and South Korea's Ministry of Science and ICT (MSIT) are expanding cooperation in South Korea's sovereign artificial intelligence ecosystem, covering areas from AI semiconductors and data center infrastructure to talent, startups, models, agents, and security.
This cooperation lays the foundation for South Korean NPU and XPU companies to explore participation in the NVIDIA NVLink Fusion ecosystem, including NVIDIA's training and certification programs, hackathons, and technical workshops, to enhance GPU utilization.
Through South Korea's "AI for All" initiative, NVIDIA will cooperate with four South Korean foundation model builders to optimize and scale AI inference using NVIDIA Dynamo software, including SK Telecom's A.X K2, LG AI Research's K-EXAONE 2.0, Upstage's Solar Open 2, and Motif Technologies' Motif-3.
In addition, NVIDIA today announced cooperation with SK Telecom and Rebellions, with MSIT support, to advance sovereign AI infrastructure for South Korean models and workloads based on NVIDIA NVLink Fusion.
Samsung Electronics is expanding its cooperation with NVIDIA to drive semiconductor innovation through accelerated computing and AI physics technologies. The work covers materials research, process development, and device engineering.
Kakao Mobility plans to advance the development of an L4-level autonomous driving system based on NVIDIA's autonomous driving computing and safety technologies. The project combines Kakao Mobility's proprietary driving software and its experience operating in Seoul's Gangnam District with NVIDIA's vehicle computing platform.
NVIDIA and LG Electronics successfully demonstrated the use of LG's CLOiD robot to achieve NVIDIA Isaac GR00T-driven robotic manipulation and manufacturing tasks in an actual manufacturing environment.
Hyundai Motor Group is exploring the NVIDIA NemoClaw blueprint and the NVIDIA OpenShell runtime, while AIM Intelligence is integrating its Starfort platform with NVIDIA OpenShell to support secure AI agents and improve employee productivity and enterprise workflows.
South Korean AI security company AIM Intelligence is integrating its Starfort agent control platform with NVIDIA OpenShell. The goal is to combine OpenShell's runtime access control with Starfort's detection of malicious instructions and data leakage. The company is also considering an initial proof of concept in the public energy sector, with potential applications covering enterprise, industrial, and robotics domains.
On the model side, LG AI Research is opening API access to K-EXAONE-2.5, a version developed using NVIDIA Nemotron datasets, including Nemotron-Personas-Korea.
