He named four French startups receiving funding (Doctolib, Genesis AI, Pigment, Entalpic) and pitched open-source models as a cheaper path for European AI sovereignty, echoing a similar pitch from Alibaba's chairman days earlier. Critics note both suppliers sell the hardware that open weights still require, keeping the chip bill with Nvidia regardless. Context includes Nvidia's $5.7T valuation, its $99B equity stake in chip-buying customers, and a possible $10B anchor investment in Anthropic's IPO. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

Nvidia plans to announce $2 billion in new European AI deals within a week of an October 2026 Paris event, adding to $8 billion invested in Europe over the prior year. Four French startups named for funding are Doctolib, Genesis AI, Pigment, and Entalpic. Globally, Nvidia committed more than $40 billion to AI equity in just the first four months of the year. _Investors tracking where AI infrastructure money flows can follow Nvidia's deal-making pace on daily.dev._ ### How many GPUs did Mistral use to train Large 4? Mistral trained its Large 4 model, a 1-trillion-parameter open-weight system, on 4,000 Nvidia Grace Blackwell GPUs located in European data centers. The weights are scheduled for publication on October 27. This makes Mistral a key test case for whether Europe can build competitive open models using domestically hosted but Nvidia-supplied hardware. _Developers evaluating open-weight models versus proprietary ones can track releases like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Nvidia has already committed $40B to equity AI deals this year](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-has-already-committed-40b-to-equity-ai-deals-this-year-5athpz2y7) · TechCrunch · 3 upvotes · 0 comments - [Nvidia’s Huang expects to sell twice as many chips next year](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-s-huang-expects-to-sell-twice-as-many-chips-next-year-uoiucxz0d) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [The Billion-Dollar Deal Reshaping Nvidia and OpenAI’s AI Ambitions](https://daily.dev/posts/the-billion-dollar-deal-reshaping-nvidia-and-openai-s-ai-ambitions-ebvdyugjr) · Medium · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Nvidia’s AI empire: A look at its top startup investments](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-s-ai-empire-a-look-at-its-top-startup-investments-rr0zj6erm) · TechCrunch · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [Nvidia targets $1-trillion in AI chip sales as inference demand surges](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-targets-1-trillion-in-ai-chip-sales-as-inference-demand-surges-lgm3xkks3) · TechCentral · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#open-source](https://daily.dev/tags/open-source), [#nvidia](https://daily.dev/tags/nvidia), [#anthropic](https://daily.dev/tags/anthropic), [#mistral-ai](https://daily.dev/tags/mistral-ai) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-plans-2b-in-european-ai-deals-in-the-next-week-eby9ddc2x) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Nvidia plans $2B in European AI deals in the next week","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-plans-2b-in-european-ai-deals-in-the-next-week-eby9ddc2x","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-plans-2b-in-european-ai-deals-in-the-next-week-eby9ddc2x"},"datePublished":"2026-10-13T16:36:23.243Z","dateModified":"2026-10-13T17:06:51.650Z","description":"Jensen Huang announced Nvidia will reveal $2B in new European AI investments within a week, part of $8B poured into the continent over the past year and $40B+...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2a01bfb64ef18923cf41bdfa6e3fe3cc?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2a01bfb64ef18923cf41bdfa6e3fe3cc?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The Next Web","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The Next Web","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/tnw","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-plans-2b-in-european-ai-deals-in-the-next-week-eby9ddc2x","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"open-source,nvidia,anthropic,mistral-ai","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The Next Web","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Nvidia plans $2B in European AI deals in the next week"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-plans-2b-in-european-ai-deals-in-the-next-week-eby9ddc2x#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How much has Nvidia invested in European AI companies recently?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Nvidia plans to announce $2 billion in new European AI deals within a week of an October 2026 Paris event, adding to $8 billion invested in Europe over the prior year.
