Lenovo and NVIDIA Launch Gigawatt-Scale AI Cloud Gigafactory with 72-GPU NVL72 System
At CES 2026, Lenovo and NVIDIA launched a gigawatt-scale AI Cloud Gigafactory program deploying the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 system with 72 Blackwell GPUs and 36 Grace CPUs. Lenovo also unveiled AI inferencing servers ThinkSystem SR675i, SR650i and ThinkEdge SE455i built for scalable LLM inference in data centers and edge environments.
1. Lenovo Launches AI Cloud Gigafactory with NVIDIA
At Tech World @ CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Lenovo and NVIDIA announced the Lenovo AI Cloud Gigafactory, a gigawatt-scale program designed to accelerate enterprise AI deployments. Leveraging Lenovo’s Neptune liquid-cooling technology and NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra architecture, the initiative integrates 72 GPUs and 36 CPUs per rack in platforms such as the GB300 NVL72 and Vera Rubin NVL72 systems. By providing ready-to-use components, co-engineering expertise and industrialized build processes, the program targets a reduction in time to first token (TTFT) from months to weeks, enabling AI cloud providers to support trillion-parameter workloads, physical AI and HPC applications at unprecedented scale and predictability.
2. Introduces High-Performance AI Inferencing Servers
Lenovo expanded its Hybrid AI Advantage portfolio with three new inferencing-optimized servers for enterprise workloads: the ThinkSystem SR675i for large-scale LLMs and accelerated simulation, the high-density SR650i for existing data centers, and the rugged ThinkEdge SE455i for edge environments operating between –5°C and 55°C. Coupled with Lenovo TruScale pay-as-you-go financing and advanced air and liquid cooling, these systems address a market forecast to grow from $5.0 billion in 2024 to $48.8 billion by 2030 at a 46.3% CAGR. Integrated solutions—such as shared inference on Nutanix AI, Red Hat AI and Ubuntu Pro—streamline deployment and boost GPU utilization, delivering real-time insights for retail, healthcare diagnostics and financial services.
3. Unveils Personal AI Super Agent Across Devices
CEO Yuanqing Yang and CTO Tolga Kurtoğlu introduced Lenovo and Motorola Qira, a cross-device personal AI super agent that functions as a Personal Ambient Intelligence System. Operating with user consent on PCs, smartphones, tablets and wearables, Qira leverages multimodal inputs and a personal knowledge base to coordinate tasks, surface context-aware recommendations (e.g., travel bookings via Expedia) and execute workflows seamlessly across Lenovo’s expanded Aura Edition PC lineup. This unified agentic approach underscores Lenovo’s vision of ‘one AI, multiple devices,’ aiming to elevate individual productivity by automating routine tasks and delivering personalized insights in real time.
