NVIDIA GTC 2025: What to Expect From the Ultimate AI Event?
All eyes are on NVIDIA this week as the chip manufacturer gears up for its biggest event of the year – the GPU Technical Conference (GTC). Starting this Monday in San Jose, CA, the week-long conference is highly anticipated. Investors, analysts, tech enthusiasts, and representatives from other leading companies are eagerly awaiting updates on NVIDIA’s latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) chips, upcoming product releases, and developments in gaming and robotics. The GTC 2025 is expected to draw some 25,000 attendees this year, more than doubling the previous year’s physical attendance. Virtual attendance is projected to reach 300,000 participants. The event is expected to have over 1,000 sessions with 2,000 speakers and close to 400 exhibitors. Some are referring to the event as the “AI Woodstock”, comparing it to the legendary 1969 music festival due to its potential groundbreaking impact on the AI industry. There is no doubt that NVIDIA has achieved remarkable success in the last couple of years. This success has been driven by its state-of-the-art GPUs, which have become essential for AI training and deep learning applications. However, the company has faced significant challenges in recent times, including intensifying competition, supply chain disruptions, antitrust Investigations, and growing pressure to maintain its dominance in a rapidly evolving industry. This year’s GTC is expected to shed light on the innovations and strategies NVIDIA aims to deploy as it navigates these hurdles and seeks to solidify its influence on the future of technology. Additionally, the rise of DeepSeek and China’s ambitious AI ambitions are likely to be a topic of interest at GTC 2025, with many closely observing how and if NVIDIA responds to these emerging developments. The event is also an opportunity for NVIDIA to boost investor confidence and stabilize its stock, which has taken a significant hit in recent months. The stock remains approximately 20.5% below its 52-week high of $153.13. The excitement over its annual GTC has already pushed NVIDIA stock up since last week. Unsurprisingly, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang will deliver the keynote at the SAP Center on Tuesday. According to NVIDIA, Huang’s keynote will focus on how AI and accelerated computing technologies are changing the world. As one of the most influential figures in the tech industry, his words carry significant weight and often shape industry trends, making his keynote a major highlight of the event. “AI is pushing the limits of what’s possible — turning yesterday’s dreams into today’s reality,” Huang shared in a press release. “GTC brings together the brightest scientists, engineers, developers, and creators to imagine and build a better future. Come and be first to see the new advances in NVIDIA computing and breakthroughs in AI, robotics, science, and the arts that will transform industries and society.” NVIDIA typically allocates a significant chunk of the conference for its GPU-related news, updates, and debuts. The AI chipmaker is excited to showcase its Blackwell Ultra GB300 chips. In a recent earnings call, Huang confirmed that the upcoming Blackwell B300 series is set to be released later this year. We can expect more details about this series at the event. According to Deutsche Bank analysts, the Blackwell Ultra GB300 chips are designed to deliver over 50% more memory capacity. The higher memory capacity is a highly appealing feature for users looking to run and train memory-hungry AI applications. Huang is also expected to reveal more about Rubin, the chipmaker’s next AI graphics processor. Rubin is NVIDIA’s next-generation GPU architecture, set to succeed the Blackwell series and deliver a significant leap in performance. Beyond GPUs, NVIDIA is expected to offer a glimpse into future computing trends on emerging technologies such as next-gen data center architectures and quantum computing. At GTC 2025, a dedicated panel featuring industry leaders from Alice & Bob, Atom Computing, and D-Wave will share their views on the latest advancements in quantum algorithms and hardware acceleration. Coincidentally, this year’s Quantum Day is on March 20th, making it a fitting moment for NVIDIA to highlight its plans for quantum computing. Huang has already made public his views about quantum computing. Speaking at the CES 2025, Huang suggested useful quantum computing may be 15-30 years away. For now, he believes the focus should remain on leveraging quantum-inspired algorithms and hybrid systems to tackle immediate challenges. It would be interesting to see if NVIDIA expands on this vision during GTC 2025 and offers new insights or developments in its quantum computing strategy. NVIDIA is likely to make some announcements regarding robotics, sovereign AI, and AI agents. Some industry watchers are also expecting news about NVIDIA’s contributions to the automotive sector.
