The recent addition of new members to the AI Partnership (AIP) is expected to strengthen its technology leadership and investment in AI infrastructure. Nvidia continues as a technical advisor, while GE Vernova and NextEra Energy will focus on diverse energy solutions for AI data centers. The AIP aims to raise $30 billion in capital, potentially mobilizing $100 billion in total investments. Influential members like Elon Musk’s xAI and Nvidia are seen as key players in attracting more funding, highlighting the growing demand for AI and energy solutions.
The new AIP members will further strengthen the partnership's technology leadership as the platform seeks to invest in new and expanded AI infrastructure. Nvidia will also continue in its role as a technical advisor to AIP, leveraging its expertise in accelerated computing and AI factories to inform the deployment of next-generation AI data center infrastructure.
Additionally, GE Vernova and NextEra Energy have agreed to collaborate with AIP to accelerate the scaling of critical and diverse energy solutions for AI data centers. GE Vernova will also work with AIP and its partners on supply chain planning and in delivering innovative and high efficiency energy solutions.
The group claimed, without offering any specifics, that it has attracted significant capital and partner interest since its inception in September 2024, highlighting the growing demand for AI-ready data centers and power solutions.
Forrester's Nguyen also noted that the influence of two of the new members - xAI, owned by Elon Musk, along with Nvidia - could easily help with fundraising. Musk "with his connections, he does not make small quiet moves," Nguyen said. "As for Nvidia, they are the face of AI. Everything they do attracts attention."
