Nvidia pledges $1B over five years to US science under Genesis Mission
At a "Science: A New Golden Age" event in Washington, DC, Nvidia said it will commit $1 billion over the next five years to US science, supporting university research, US quantum computing and cloud providers that serve government needs — without saying how the money splits among them. The company described itself as a leading industry partner in the Energy Department-led Genesis Mission and said it is collaborating on Phase 2 awards spanning quantum computing, fusion, accelerator design and microelectronics. Nvidia added that it has worked with US national labs for more than two decades, including building the department's largest supercomputer for scientific research at Argonne National Laboratory and supporting seven new systems at Argonne and Los Alamos.
It ties Nvidia's compute to federal science programmes, potentially shaping how public research funding is allocated across quantum, fusion and microelectronics.
