NVIDIA and partners commit to developing AI-native, open 6G networks to enhance global connectivity and accelerate innovation.
NVIDIA Is Working With Global Telecom Leaders To Bring 6G To Frutiation, Built Upon Open & Secure AI-Native Platforms
Press Release: NVIDIA today announced a commitment — together with Booz Allen, BT Group, Cisco, Deutsche Telekom, Ericsson, MITRE, Nokia, OCUDU Ecosystem Foundation, ODC, SK Telecom, SoftBank Corp., and T-Mobile — to build the world’s next generation of wireless networks on AI-native, open, secure, and trustworthy platforms.
The initiative represents a shared commitment to ensure 6G infrastructure — the foundation for the world’s future connectivity — is open, intelligent, resilient, and accelerates innovation and safeguards global trust.
Beyond traditional connectivity, 6G wireless networks will become the fabric for physical AI, enabling billions of autonomous machines, vehicles, sensors, and robots, and significantly increasing demands for security and trust. Legacy wireless architectures were not designed to meet these requirements, creating challenges as networks increase in complexity.
To address this, NVIDIA is bringing the industry together to advance AI-native, software-defined wireless platforms built on open and trusted principles. By embedding AI across the radio access network (RAN), edge, and core, 6G networks must enable secure integrated sensing and communications, intelligence, and decision-making while supporting interoperability, supply-chain resilience, and faster innovation.
Uniting on Openness and Trust for the AI-Native, Software-Defined Era of Connectivity
6G will be AI-native and software-defined, enabling wireless networks to advance at the pace of innovation. 6G networks, built on AI-RAN architecture, will continuously evolve through software, enabling real-time intelligence and rapid advancement. This transformation opens the door for a diverse ecosystem of participants — from global operators and technology providers to startups, researchers, and developers — all contributing through open and programmable platforms.
A Shared Vision for 6G: Open, Software-Defined, AI-Native
NVIDIA participates in global private and public initiatives to advance 6G innovation, contributing open source software, accessible platforms, and joint research and development projects:
- In the United States, NVIDIA has joined the FutureG Office-led OCUDU Initiative, aligning with government and industry partners to accelerate open, software-defined, and AI-native 6G architectures.
- NVIDIA is a founding member of the AI-RAN Alliance, which now has over 130 participating companies driving AI-RAN innovation.
- NVIDIA, along with Booz Allen, Cisco, T-Mobile, MITRE, and ODC, in October launched the AI-Native Wireless Networks (AI-WIN) project, an all-American AI-RAN stack to accelerate the path to 6G.
- In Korea, NVIDIA is collaborating with an industry consortium to help shape intelligent, secure, programmable 6G networks from the ground up.
- In the U.K., NVIDIA is collaborating with the Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology to advance applied research, ecosystem development, and trusted AI-native network design.
- Across Europe and Japan, NVIDIA is actively engaged with public and industry programs aimed at strengthening open innovation, interoperability, and trusted infrastructure.
Together, these collaborations represent a unified commitment — supported by like‑minded governments, operators, and technology partners — to shape secure, intelligent, and trusted global connectivity for the next generation of wireless technology.
