Novation City Partners with Nvidia to Launch First AI Innovation Hub in Africa and the Middle East

Today, September 17, Novation City signed a partnership with Nvidia to launch the first Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovation hub in Africa and the Middle East.

Named "AI Innovation Hub", this center aims to stimulate innovation and development in the field of AI.

"I am particularly proud to have invested in a DGX-100 to support startups in Tunisia by providing local computing power for their AI models," said the President of Novation City's Board of Directors, a competitiveness cluster in Sousse.

He added, "This is a small step in a clear roadmap to elevate our startup ecosystem to the global stage."

It is worth noting that Novation City, founded in 2009, is dedicated to developing and managing cutting-edge economic zones.

The new center will reinforce efforts to create an integrated system of mechatronics and high-value-added activities. By collaborating with Nvidia, a company specialized in graphics processors and system-on-a-chip, Novation City aims to encourage technological innovation and offer new development opportunities in the region.

This project is expected to strengthen local innovation capabilities, attract investments and talent, and contribute to economic and technological growth in the region.
