GTC 2026: The Trends, the Tipping Points, and the Offleash Clients Leading the Way

And that’s a wrap! Another amazing NVIDIA GTC event in the books. This year, one thing was clear: AI is no longer emerging – it’s operational, economic, and everywhere.

This year marked a definitive shift from experimentation to execution. The conversation has moved beyond building models to what it actually takes to run AI at scale. And right in the middle of it all – our amazing Offleash clients.

If last year was about possibility, this year was about proof. One of the biggest themes coming out of GTC was the shift from training to inference – with the industry now focused on how to serve AI in real time, at scale, and efficiently. At the same time, the rise of agentic AI is putting new pressure on the entire technology stack. 

More broadly, AI is no longer just software – it’s infrastructure. AI factories are quickly turning into reality, with companies investing heavily in compute, data, and energy to support this next wave. 

Aside from getting the inside scoop on where AI and compute are headed, GTC is always a moment to connect, and this year was no exception. Our team was on the ground last week supporting client announcements and media activity, attending sessions, and connecting with press, analysts, and partners across the ecosystem. We also hosted an informal happy hour with clients and friends of the firm – one of those moments that perfectly captures what Offleash is all about: great people, great conversations, and the relationships that power everything we do.

We were especially proud to see our clients take center stage throughout the event. Bright Machines, Crusoe, Domino Data Lab, FluidCloud, Nutanix, VAST Data, and Voxel51 were all part of the conversation and are among some of the most important companies shaping the future of AI.

Several of our clients also made major announcements at the show, reinforcing their leadership in the market:

• Crusoe expanded its collaboration with NVIDIA across the full AI factory stack, delivering end-to-end infrastructure for the agentic AI era
• Nutanix unveiled Nutanix Agentic AI, a full stack software solution to unlock the potential of enterprise AI factories
• VAST Data introduced Foundation Stacks to accelerate enterprise adoption of NVIDIA AI Blueprints
• And Voxel51, in collaboration with NVIDIA and Nebius, is helping power the future of robotics and physical AI through advanced data pipelines and synthetic data generation

We left GTC feeling energized, inspired, and more confident than ever in the role our clients are playing in shaping this future. To our clients, thank you for trusting us to be part of the journey. To our partners, media, and friends, it was great to connect.

And to the broader ecosystem — we’re just getting started.
