Summary
NVIDIA and KAIST said they will open a joint AI research lab at KAIST’s Kim Jaechul Graduate School of AI in Seoul, focused on advancing agentic AI for South Korea.
The lab is the first AI research center jointly established by a Korean university and any global technology company, tying NVIDIA’s full-stack expertise, Nemotron open models and AI Cloud partner computing to KAIST researchers.
The announcement came during an AI summit in San Francisco, where President Lee Jae Myung, Jensen Huang and Korean business leaders are mapping a broader push to expand Korea’s AI infrastructure and talent base.
That effort follows Huang’s Korea visit last month and fits Seoul’s stated goal of building a full-stack AI ecosystem and positioning South Korea as a global AI innovation hub.
