Tech Data announced a European distribution agreement with Nvidia.
The new agreement extends an existing agreement, in which Tech Data offers Nvidia Networking solutions across the region, to now include Nvidia hardware, the AI Enterprise software suite and DGX systems, as well as the Omniverse Enterprise platform.
The agreement also adds Nvidia DGX systems, enabling businesses to scale AI development with solutions purpose-built for enterprise.
Tech Data said it will reinforce its Nvidia offerings with a comprehensive range of professional and managed services and will leverage its own Solution Factory methodology to develop customised solutions with Nvidia products at the core for a variety of vertical use cases.
The company said it will offer its partners the opportunity to accelerate their expertise and business readiness through its Practice Builder programmes. For those not in the know, Practice Builder provides a structured path – including business maturity assessment, training and solution development – to enable partners to develop their own next-generation solutions practices, offering access to knowledge and skills development resources.
These programmes are delivered as online enablement paths and include various elements, such as virtual strategy development workshops, supported by the solution practice mentors.
Miriam Murphy, senior vice president, Advanced and Specialised Solutions, Europe, at Tech Data said: “It’s hugely exciting to extend our NVIDIA offering to cover the full solution stack and to have the opportunity to incorporate NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI and Omniverse simulation technology into the solutions that we develop for our ecosystem partners.”
She said that AI was becoming a vital ingredient for enterprises, governments and other public institutions in the race to leverage data to enhance efficiency, make better decisions and make the world safer.
“Meanwhile, platforms that enable digital twins and virtual worlds like Omniverse Enterprise are set to fundamentally transform the way that societies interact, collaborate and create. There is no better time for our partners to engage in this growth area for technology,” she said.
Nvidia products and services are now available to Tech Data partners in the UK, Ireland, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Czech, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Baltics and Southeast Europe.
