Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions, has expanded its collaboration with Nvidia to launch industry-specific solutions and offerings that will help customers adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI) faster and at scale. These solutions will be offered through TCS’ new business unit focused on Nvidia, under its AI Cloud business unit.

It builds on a collaboration with Nvidia for over five years, brings together the complementary capabilities of both organisations and will offer tailored offerings for various industries.

According to a recent TS AI for Business Study, enterprises worldwide are racing to adopt AI but there is no consensus on an AI adoption strategy. The journey for every enterprise is unique and involves an interplay of AI and existing enterprise capabilities.

The partners believe that AI adoption at scale requires an intimate understanding of the enterprise and its practices and building AI models that are customised for the context. The new unit will design and deliver curated AI adoption strategies by leveraging global centres of excellence (CoEs), investments in the Nvidia AI platform - including accelerated computing and AI software, and the Nvidia AI Enterprise and Nvidia Omniverse platforms - and skilled resources

The new unit also offers TCS’ proprietary framework, which brings together its deep domain expertise, enterprise contextual knowledge and Nvidia AI technology for building and deploying agentic AI solutions  - including nvidia NIM microservices and Nvidia NIM Agent Blueprints, which are part of the nvidia AI Enterprise software platform and Nvidia AI Foundry – to deliver value at scale to customers.

The partners aim to build innovative, value chain-centric solutions and offerings for industry verticals on the Nvidia AI platform including:

TCS Manufacturing AI for Industrials; TCS AI Spectrum for BFSI; TCS Cognitive Visual Receiving; AI-Native Telco Offerings and TCS AI-based Autonomous Vehicle Platform.

The autonomous vehicle platform will see TCS’ IoT and Digital Engineering unit work with Nvidia to leverage generative AI and deep learning technologies, such as Omniverse for simulation and Nvidia AI Enterprise for synthetic data generation, to accelerate the development of end-to-end autonomous features and capabilities for automotive OEMs and tier 1 suppliers.

Jay Puri, Executive Vice-President of Worldwide Field Operations, Nvidia said, “The fusion of TCS’ deep industry expertise with Nvidia AI technology is set to introduce a new era of intelligent enterprise transformation. TCS’ new Nvidia business unit is poised to accelerate AI and simulation with Nvidia AI Enterprise for building agentic AI solutions and Nvidia Omniverse for building physical AI solutions, paving the way for AI-driven innovation across India and the world.”

Siva Ganesan, Head, AI Cloud Unit, TCS said, “Curated AI journeys are derived at the intersection of deep-domain and deep-tech. This is a space that TCS has excelled at during every business transformation cycle. Our unique vantage point, at the intersection of business and technology, helps us identify the right opportunities for our customers. With the innovative and efficient Nvidia AI platform, and our wide scale and proven track record in delivering value, our customers now have a means to faster value realisation.”

Anupam Singhal, President – Manufacturing, TCS said, "Manufacturers can now achieve unprecedented accuracy and access the tacit knowledge to optimise their operations, improve decision-making, and drive impactful innovation. This is possible with TCS' Manufacturing AI for Industrials offering, which leverages Nvidia technology to harness the power of LLMs (large language models) and is fine-tuned with TCS' deep manufacturing industry expertise.”

The collaboration with Nvidia is part of TCS' broader efforts to strengthen its AI-readiness and build end-to-end capabilities powered by Nvidia technology to foster enterprise-wide AI transformation for its key customers. 

John Fanelli, Vice-President, Enterprise Software, Nvidia said, “Factories, warehouses and robotics are the next grounds for physical AI innovation at scale. Combining cutting edge AI and simulation capabilities can unlock unprecedented potential for intelligent manufacturing operations for TCS clients.”

To help manufacturers embrace the next wave of digital manufacturing, TCS is also working on a new suite of digital twin solutions built on the Nvidia Omniverse development platform, enabling clients to design, simulate, operate, and optimize products and production facilities across heavy industries:

Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has unveiled the Toyota Experiential Museum (TEM) in Bengaluru, which it said is a new cultural and lifestyle hub for the company. The space combines Indian philosophy with Japanese culture and technology.

Located on the ground floor of the Phoenix Mall of Asia, TEM is spread across 8,200 sq ft and offers a five-senses experience, blending Japanese minimalism with Indian warmth through visuals, sounds, scents, textures and flavours.

Tadashi Asazuma, Deputy Managing Director, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, said, “At Toyota, our vision of creating ‘Happier Paths Together’ goes beyond mobility – it is about inspiring experiences that connect people, cultures, and emotions. With TEM, we hope to offer a truly unique experience that embodies this spirit.

In India, we found inspiration in the practice of Sadhana – the mindful pursuit of inner balance and fulfilment. TEM is where the Japanese culture and values of precision, serenity, and respect for nature beautifully align with the spirit of Sadhana, making TEM a meaningful blend of both. Designed to engage the senses and spark reflection, it brings together art, technology, and craftsmanship to inspire mindfulness, especially amongst the youth.”

The museum features minimalist interiors and distinct aesthetics designed to spark curiosity, inviting guests to explore at their own pace. The journey begins with a mirrored and rhythmic experience of the changing seasons common to Japan and India, unfolding through infinite projections of light, colour and motion. It then rises into a celebration of shared passion, featuring an audio-visual collaboration with DRUM TAO. A display includes a water curtain encircling a car draped in satin.

A design cafe offers a range of merchandise blending heritage with contemporary lifestyle, celebrating simplicity and craftsmanship.

The TEM cafe features a curated menu that blends the Japanese tradition of matcha with Indian flavours. Highlights include the India-inspired mango infusion.

LG Display has secured two CES 2026 Innovation Awards from the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) for two automotive display innovations: Dual View OLED and Under Display Camera-infrared (UDC-IR) OLED.

Both products were honoured in the In-Vehicle Entertainment category for delivering space efficiency, superior picture quality and high standards of safety.

The Dual View OLED solution allows a single automotive display to show different content based on the viewing position. For example, the driver can view navigation while the front passenger streams content. Optimised pixel structure ensures the driver’s touch operation does not interfere with the passenger’s entertainment. The product utilises a Tandem OLED device structure for picture quality and operates reliably in environments ranging from -40deg C to 85deg C.

The UDC-IR OLED jointly developed with LG Innotek, is claimed to world’s first full-screen automotive display to conceal an in-screen driver-monitoring camera. LG Display developed advanced algorithms that make the camera hole invisible from the driver’s viewpoint. The camera integrates LG Innotek’s high-resolution IR camera and image-enhancement software to ensure accurate driver monitoring, which is becoming mandatory due to global safety regulations.

LG Display will showcase these solutions at a dedicated booth at CES 2026. The company has consistently won CES Innovation Awards, previously honoured for its Thin Actuator Sound Solution (CES 2023) and its 57-inch Pillar-to-Pillar LCD (CES 2024).
