GTC 2025 Recap: Offleash Clients Take Center Stage 

Share

All In on the Future of AI

GTC brings together the people and technologies shaping the future of artificial intelligence. It’s a space where strategy, product, and industry vision converge, and where Offleash clients continue to make their mark. For over a decade, we’ve gone all in with AI companies working at the forefront of innovation, helping them communicate with clarity, stand out in the market, and lead industry conversations. At GTC 2025, that presence was on full display. Crusoe, Domino, D-Wave, Nutanix, Securiti, and VAST took the spotlight, contributing to high-impact discussions, launching new ideas, and showcasing technologies that are actively changing the way industries build, scale, and secure AI.

From Vision to Velocity: Takeaways from Jensen Huang’s Keynote

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang kicked off GTC 2025 with a clear message: AI is no longer an emerging technology. It’s a driving force reshaping industries like healthcare, finance, energy, and beyond. His keynote explored the rapid pace of generative AI and quantum computing, and how these advances are becoming more accessible, actionable, and integrated into everyday business strategy. For companies building in this space, his message was a call to align innovation with purpose and velocity. It’s the same mindset our clients brought to the conference, and the kind of bold storytelling Offleash champions every day.

Offleash Clients Make Their Mark 

Crusoe participated in multiple talks throughout GTC 2025, but a standout moment came when CEO Chase Lochmiller took the stage. During the panel, “Inside NVIDIA’s Growing AI Portfolio,” Chase joined voices from NVIDIA Ventures, Insight Partners, IVP, and startups like Uniphore to explore how strategic partnerships are fueling AI infrastructure at scale. Crusoe’s participation is further proof of its position as a key player in NVIDIA’s broader investment thesis—and the company’s sessions throughout the week drove that point home. From scalable inference to sustainable infrastructure and managed training, Crusoe showed how energy-first approaches can help AI development keep pace with real-world demands.  The company also used the GTC spotlight to announce the expansion of its AI data center campus inAbilene, Texas, where construction is underway on six new buildings, bringing Crusoe’s total footprint at the site to roughly 4 million square feet and 1.2 gigawatts of power capacity. It’s a bold step forward for Crusoe’s vision of manufacturing intelligence at scale, with sustainability and economic impact at its core.

D-Wave CEO Dr. Alan Baratz joined Huang for NVIDIA’s inaugural Quantum Day, contributing to one of the most talked-about moments of the conference. His perspective on practical quantum computing grounded the discussion in current opportunities while pointing to where the field is headed. 

In addition to hosting several talks and networking events at GTC, VAST announced the next phase of its long-standing partnership with the National Hockey League (NHL). In collaboration with NVIDIA, VAST enabled the NHL to digitize and analyze over 100 years of game footage—more than 500,000 hours in total. This collaboration uses advanced AI and machine learning to make every play searchable and generate personalized highlights, enhancing both fan engagement and player performance analysis. By modernizing its data infrastructure, the NHL is not only preserving its storied history but also unlocking new opportunities for real-time insights and immersive viewing experiences.

Offleash on the Ground: Happy Hours, Robots, and More

We had a great time catching up with clients, media friendlies, and industry connections at our Offleash-hosted happy hour—a casual get-together that gave us the chance to connect face-to-face and swap stories from the week. It was one of several moments that made GTC feel a little more personal, alongside client events we were proud to attend and support. 

Walking the GTC show floor was an experience in itself—buzzing with energy, packed with demos, and yes, full of robots. From agile warehouse bots to humanoid helpers and AI-powered machines doing everything from flipping pancakes to solving puzzles, the creativity on display was inspiring.
