SAN JOSE, Calif., March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- GTC — NVIDIA today announced the NVIDIA Nemotron Coalition, a global collaboration between open model builders and AI developers advancing frontier open models through shared research, expertise, data and compute — helping accelerate innovation across the global AI ecosystem. Through the coalition, Black Forest Labs, Cursor, LangChain, Mistral AI, Perplexity, Reflection AI, Sarvam and Thinking Machines Lab will bring together their expertise to collaboratively build open frontier models. By combining forces, the coalition aims to accelerate progress on AI models, expanding intelligence beyond any single model and strengthening a vibrant open ecosystem while making model development more efficient so organizations can build, specialize and innovate on a shared, open foundation. The first project stemming from the coalition will be a base model codeveloped by Mistral AI and NVIDIA, bringing together the AI expertise and technology of both companies. Coalition members will contribute data, evaluations and domain expertise to support the model’s post-training and continued development. The model will enable developers and organizations to post-train and specialize AI systems for their industries, regions and unique needs. Trained on NVIDIA DGX™ Cloud, the model will be shared with the open ecosystem and underpin the upcoming NVIDIA Nemotron™ 4 family of models. “Open models are the lifeblood of innovation and the engine of global participation in the AI revolution — for students, scientists, startups and entire industries,” said Jensen Huang...
