Join us for the SGInnovate x NVIDIA Tech Talk 2026 - returning for its second edition - as part of SGInnovate’s Let’s TECH It series, an exciting session where innovation meets practical application.
Open-source AI is rapidly reshaping how organizations build, scale, and operationalize intelligence. In this session, an NVIDIA expert will explore how AI factories are powering a new generation of intelligent digital workers - agents that learn continuously, reason contextually, plan autonomously, and collaborate with humans to deliver measurable business impact.
Course Description & Learning Outcomes
This Tech Talk combines two complementary experiences:
A GTC 2026 Watch Party
A Hands-on Training Lab
Participants will also have a chance to win exclusive prizes, including 01 RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell WS.
Target Audience
AI developers & ML engineers building agentic AI systems
Solution architects & cloud engineers deploying AI at scale
Business executives exploring production-ready AI strategies
By attending this Tech Talk, you will:
Understand how AI factories transform raw data and foundation models into continuously improving digital workers.
See how open source AI accelerates innovation while maintaining enterprise-grade control and governance.
Learn how memory, reasoning, planning, and multi-modal capabilities are redefining real-world workflows.
Gain a practical roadmap for translating AI experimentation into scalable, production-ready systems.
