London – Everywhere Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang goes, the excitement follows – this time, to London Tech Week.
The boss of Nvidia – that Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives surcomes the “godfather of the AI” – is more like a rockstar these days, given its wide effect on the AI industry.
“The amount of infrastructure required for AI would not be possible without this man,” said a participant in the London Tech Week.
“It is like Iron Man,” added the participant, referring to the popular superhero Marvel who is a technological billionaire inventor under the name of Tony Stark.
Floods of people have grown too much from the main scene of London technological week when they were trying to participate in the conversation of the boss of Nvidia, Jensen Huang.

The lines to enter the auditorium of Olympia were already built about 40 minutes before Jensen went on stage alongside the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Everyone failed to enter – but there were screens usefully on the place where people could have an overview of Huang’s conversation.
People were sitting at other stages of the place to watch the CEO of Nvidia speak with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer because there was not enough room in the opening scene.

The CEO of Nvidia gave its continuous optimistic evaluation of artificial intelligence, calling it “incredible technology” and saying that it should be considered an infrastructure, as is electricity.
The United Kingdom obtains a brilliant approval from Huang
There was no investments of several billion dollars praised at the London Tech Week. But the biggest victory for Starmer and the United Kingdom was by far the sumptuous praise of Huang for the country.
Dressed in its brand leather jacket, Huang described the United Kingdom as “the envy of the world” which is in the middle of a “Goldilocks circumstance”, offering a vibrating venture capital ecosystem, as well as budding budding entrepreneurs of main companies, including Google Deepmind, Synthesia, Wayve and Elevenlabs.
Speaking alongside Huang, Starmer spoke in an animated manner while praising Nvidia investments in the United Kingdom earlier in the day, the American chip manufacturer announced a new “British sovereign industry forum”, as well as commitments from its NSCAL and Nebius cloud suppliers to deploy new installations containing thousands of its Blackwell GPU chips.
Starmer spoke at length about the promise of the AI and the ways in which he could alleviate the charges to which the institutions of the public sector of the United Kingdom, from hospitals to schools.
Huang added that the United Kingdom is “a great place to invest”, noting that Nvidia plans to join the country to improve technological workers and develop national AI infrastructure.
“The infrastructure allows more research – more research, more breakthroughs, more companies,” said the chief of Nvidia. “This steering wheel will start to take off. It’s already quite large, but we are just going to advance this steering wheel.”
Starmer thanked Huang for her point, commenting that “the confidence she gives when you explain it in this way is enormous”.
“From our point of view, we are really happy to be seen in this way,” said the British chief.
The pair will shake hands at the end.
In total, there was a lot of energy in the room. Huang said he was “excited” for the London Tech Week, and that he had met a salvo of public applause.
Europe wants a piece of Huang
Huang has become the CEO with which everyone wants to be seen. Nvidia has positioned itself as central to the AI revolution, which, according to many commentators, is in the first sleeves.
Nvidia wants this revolution to be built on her tokens. And for countries like the United Kingdom, these moments offer the country a chance to boast its investment potential and publicly share a scene with man considered to supply AI.
London was Huang’s first judgment in a wider European tour.
The boss of Nvidia will go to Paris later this week, where the flea manufacturer will organize his GTC conference. Politicians, including President Emmanuel Macron, who has motivated France’s ambition to become a European AI center, will probably want a little time with Huang.
