Macron –I am used to coming here to make speeches to invest in intelligence but this is ny first time being omn stage with intelliugence best ceo Jensen – you’re doing my job so now I can go to bed Honestly what Jenson just told us is super important and what is very important is that having the entire world but the French ecosystem hearing that the fact that we have all these assets talents ecosystem energy infrastructure ecosystem// you are totally right this is our fight for sovereignty for strategic autonomy which is to say we want to keep that we want our cloud cloud we want our data centers we want our computing capacities and we want all the services and infrastructures allowing us to preserve this this intelligence 1.50.21 Intelligence Value multipliers are strategic Mistral’s Arthur Mensch- you cant have foreign entities
holding turnkey to strategic infrastructure -the system that will be deploying for critical
infrastructure that's extremely important true for defense it's true for energy true for any governmental
services and then there's another aspect which is we can by partnering in
between European tech European tech ecosystem and the European leaders the European champions we can actually create a lot
here and creating valueing new startups have people coming new entrepreneurs have funds that are
coming and so that compounds that has compounded for the last 60 years in Silicon valley and in Paris we started to
do that I think we're like
maybe 15 years (in 2009 was when Jensen Huang Fa,mily
founded Deep Learning AI Lab at Dstanford Engineering quadrangle into the journey but
I'm sure we can go faster if we actually come together as as one economic
region that wants to create value here
Vivatech and Publicis’ Guillot: Jensen What I really like
what you have said and what Arthur has followed on is that you have not taken the the concept of sovereignty from a strategic point of view or from the defense of the interest
but from the cultural aspect and this is something which speak a lot to my heart when I started to to build the global network of
publicis I decided that we should move from instead of being just international but deep in each country and the reason why we picked viva la
differ because we believe that each country is different it has
its own culture and I think that is really great that you started from this point
of view
To Jensen Huang: when you look at your colleagues (eg zuckenberger) in the US they
are not at all thinking this way and when you have conversation with Macron and the others
um how they are reacting to your approach because they consider for example that all
data can be located in the US there is no issue : they should have access to all data without any difficulty and they should crunch all data of the world
without any limitation Jense- how when you have those conversation with American colleagues- how do they reason Jensen: i haven't had those conversations it doesn't matter how they react; otherwise I would ask him I I on first principles believe that 2:09:51 [Applaudissements | .let me say this week’s announcement of Partnership between Nvidia and Mistral ai is for an historical one 2:00:14 [Applaudissements]
i mean this is absolutely unique and we want to help them in February during France’s AI submit we launched a lot of projecst to have computing capacities and data centers and I want to thank all those who launch MJX and some of those who launched very important projects and and additional capacities but now with such a global Player as Nvidia number one going upstream in the system we create so many synergies
and a complete offer which will provide something unique to all those who want to use both m solution and Nvidia software Nvidia solutions and so on and 2:01:11 it creates the capacity for us to scale up obviously but a capacity to build actual French and European off and I want to thank you for this trust and this is synergies between two of you and I know that a lot of companies started to commit so you had the first offset and it was a challenge because we 2:01:35 met few days ago and the main question of was to say I mean will we find big 2:01:42 companies committing with us and and in fact starting to commit to buy solutions 2:01:48 and and join in few days would 2:01:55 french and Nvidia teams man to have sufficient number of people 2:02:03 and very big cookies I have to say some of them are in this room so it means 2:02:09 large companies top notch French groups 2:02:14 and they took the commitment and you launch your offer so I want to congratulate you because this is really a game changer
Jensen Huang Yes congratulations President Macron; let me say thidsd I was at the president's office and describing this idea and I told Mr president that Arthur at Mistral needs the support of the largest companies in France and Mr president says "Who are they let me call them."
And he called them and in just a few days Ins the great companies of France came out to support Arthur and I think it's fantastic now now the circulation system business in France could be delivered through businesses in France and this circulation is going to be fantastic for the economy it's going to be fantastic for starting a young company and getting a bootstrapped that flywheel will start to go this is how it happens and just by asking Mr President for a little bit of help he mobilized this team to support us thank you | .2:04:33 iJENSEN I bet never in your wildest dreams when you started Mistral did you expect that your president would help you get your customers ARTUR yeah PRESIDEN MACRON it's been very useful i will tell you because I think super 2:04:50 important for obviously and and the company but it's extremely 2:04:58 important for exactly what you said because this is a whole ecosystem working together and we did it for all 2:05:04 the startups some of some of them will join us and some a lot of them are in this room but because we want to be sure 2:05:11 that we will be working with European solutions we want to cooperate with 2:05:18 Chinese American Korean solutions on but we want to be sure that we will choose 2:05:24 this corporation but we will not be dependent on them and and it's very important for us precisely because we 2:05:30 speak about our intelligence our brain our culture about our history we want to preserve this divers level of diversity 2:05:37 and this is exactly what and it was it's the very at the 2:05:42 cornerstone if I may say of of the whole restructuring of the industry but now we 2:05:48 had to secure indeed AI infrastructures 2:05:54 and this is what you NVIDIA provide and your solutions and your software and such a global rich that this is a game changer 2:06:00 for us because it will allow us to have more clients and to secure precisely uh 2:06:05 all the synergies and now what we want to do because I raise a question to Jenson we want now to go upstream we 2:06:12 would have to have more and more we do have a lot of companies and French companies working with you when you 2:06:18 deploy capacities and so you mentioned them during our first meeting but we 2:06:24 want to go and have the packaging of 2:06:30 of the chips in France and the production the manufacturing of the chips in France
Jensn which is why 2:06:37 I told Mr president that Nvidia's first chip was actually made in France 1994
Macron it's very important because now since learn me that I use it all all the time to pitch our ecosystem Guillot- Jensen tell us a story i think it's very important because I don't believe that people know you didn't know Nvidia story so story is
Jensen Huang in 1994 the the company who was who had the 2:07:09 technology to help me to build Nvidia's first GPU 2:07:14 was SGS Thomson STM
| Macron: and for the story fundamental research and our big 2:07:39 research center and that and it's a great story so what we want to do now because STM still exist and we have a great ecosystem there but I mean the range of chips they produce is much more
for the car industry but not yet for AI and we want to go and if we want to consolidate our industry we have now to get more and more of the chips 2:08:03 lower to n and cook deal between radial and foxcon 2:08:12 and create capacities now to make the packaging of chips in france so we go up 2:08:18 now next steps i want to convince them to make the manufacturing in france to get the whole sovereignty of everything 2:08:25 which will allow us from the chiefs to the solutions and startups to have a 2:08:31 complete offer but the deal today that two guys Jensden and Artur announced is really a game 2:08:37 changer for everybody and I want to encourage all the large companies but all the startups as well to join this team with safety European content cloud in Europe solutions controlled and produced here on your soil and you will make them stronger and they will make you stronger which is exactly how you create synergies in an ecosystem so my plea is clearly for all of you in thisroom and all listening to ujs to team up wiuth the new team announced this morning of mistral and nvidia |
