Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is set to maintain a busy schedule following his recent Taiwan visit, with upcoming keynote appearances at Dassault Systèmes' "3DEXPERIENCE World 2026" and the Cisco AI Summit. As AI reshapes industries worldwide, Dassault Systèmes and Cisco are focusing their annual conferences on how AI transforms end-to-end design and manufacturing processes, as well as its impact on global economic systems and regulatory frameworks.
Nvidia, a leading force in AI development, holds significant influence and has become a top collaborator for major industry players.
While Nvidia and Dassault Systèmes have maintained close cooperation over the years, this marks the first time Huang will appear as a keynote speaker at the event. Invited personally by Dassault CEO Pascal Daloz, Huang's presence raises expectations for breakthroughs combining AI with digital twin technologies.
Immediately after concluding his Taiwan trip, Huang reportedly flew directly to Houston to deliver his speech at "3DEXPERIENCE World 2026" on February 4 (Taiwan time). Ahead of the conference, Dassault Systèmes executives emphasized the importance of "AI democratization," arguing that computational resources should not limit user choice despite growing efforts by end brands to deploy AI models locally for efficiency and security. Daloz hinted at a major announcement during Huang's appearance, fueling speculation about expanded collaboration on AI computing and model training.
The Cisco AI Summit will concentrate on the global AI economy, exploring infrastructure deployment, application scaling, and governance challenges at an international level. The event underscores that AI competition now extends beyond technology into shaping worldwide economic ecosystems and standards.
Alongside Huang, the summit will reportedly feature prominent speakers including OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, World Labs founder Fei-Fei Li—known as the "godmother of AI"—and AWS CEO Matt Garman, assembling a high-profile lineup.
