Nvidia bought into nine European companies in two days
In two days Jensen Huang took minority stakes in four French and five British AI companies and promised British safety research 250 million dollars' worth of compute over five years. The sums for the stakes have not been disclosed, and the donation is not cash but access to Nvidia's own product.
