$NBIS - the best NeoCloud in town, today announced the Physical AI Living Lab. This is great for the next frontier of technology - Physical AI.\n\nThey are creating a six-month program that equips British and European robotics startups with NVIDIA’s physical AI development tools and Nebius’s AI cloud infrastructure.\n\nPhysical AI depends on large-scale simulation, synthetic data, and accelerated compute that most early-stage robotics companies cannot assemble on their own. \n\nThe Physical AI Living Lab removes that barrier, putting the same class of tooling and compute used to build physical AI at scale into the hands of founders, so they can move from simulation to real-world deployment faster.\n\nThe Lab builds on Nebius and NVIDIA’s collaboration to create a cloud platform for robotics and physical AI. The companies intend to extend the Physical AI Living Lab to other regions over time and bring in further cohorts as the program grows.\n\nThe first phase of the Physical AI Living Lab will run on Nebius’s UK-based infrastructure, built on NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs. \n\nBeyond the simulation and training tools, participants build, fine-tune and run their models on Nebius AI Cloud — the company’s full-stack platform for taking AI from data and training through to production deployment.\n\nApplications run through the NVIDIA Inceptionpipeline. The first cohort will begin in September 2026. Engineers from both Nebius and NVIDIA will provide technical guidance throughout the program.\n\nBullish Nebius ⚡️
