NVIDIA today was named the world\u2019s most innovative company by Fast Company<\/i> magazine.<\/p>\n

The accolade comes on the heels of company founder and CEO Jensen Huang being inducted into the U.S. National Academy of Engineering.<\/p>\n

A team of several dozen journalists at Fast Company<\/i> \u2014 a business media brand launched in 1995 by two Harvard Business Review<\/i> editors \u2014 ranked NVIDIA the leader in its 2024 list<\/a> of the world\u2019s 50 most innovative companies.<\/p>\n

\u201cPutting AI to Work\u201d<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u201cNvidia isn\u2019t just in the business of providing ever-more-powerful computing hardware and letting everybody else figure out what to do with it,\u201d Fast Company<\/i> wrote in an article<\/a> detailing its selection.<\/p>\n

\u201cAcross an array of industries, the company\u2019s technologies, platforms, and partnerships are doing much of the heavy lifting of putting AI to work,\u201d citing advances in automotive, drug discovery, gaming and retail announced in one recent week.<\/p>\n

The article noted the central role of the CUDA<\/a> compute platform. It also shared an eye-popping experience using NVIDIA Omniverse<\/a> to interact with a digital twin of a Nissan Z sport coupe.<\/p>\n

In a League With Giants<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u201cEven for AI\u2019s titans, building on what Nvidia has created \u2014 the more ambitiously, the better \u2014 is often how progress happens,\u201d the article concluded.<\/p>\n

Last year, OpenAI led the list for ChatGPT, the large language model<\/a> that started a groundswell in generative AI<\/a>. In 2021, Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech topped the ranking for rapidly developing a Covid vaccine.<\/p>\n

Fast Company<\/i> bases its ranking on four criteria: innovation, impact, timeliness and relevance. Launched in 2008, the annual list recognizes organizations that have introduced groundbreaking products, fostered positive social impact and reshaped industries.<\/p>\n

NVIDIA invented the GPU in 1999, redefining computer graphics and igniting the era of modern AI. NVIDIA is now driving the platform shift of accelerated computing<\/a> and generative AI, transforming the world\u2019s largest industries.<\/p>\n

Fueling an AI Revolution<\/b><\/h2>\n

Last month, Huang was elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE<\/a>) for contributions in \u201chigh-powered graphics processing units, fueling the artificial intelligence revolution.\u201d<\/p>\n

Academy membership honors those who have made outstanding contributions such as pioneering new fields of technology. Founded in 1964, the NAE provides a trusted source of engineering advice for creating a healthier, more secure and sustainable world.<\/p>\n

\u201cJensen Huang\u2019s induction into the National Academy of Engineering is a testament to his enduring contributions to our industry and world,\u201d said Satya Nadella, chairman and CEO of Microsoft.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis visionary leadership has forever transformed computing, from the broad adoption of advanced 3D graphics to today\u2019s GPUs \u2014 and, more importantly, has driven foundational innovations across every sector, from gaming and productivity, to digital biology and healthcare. All of us at Microsoft congratulate Jensen on this distinction, and we are honored to partner with him and the entire NVIDIA team on defining this new era of AI,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cJensen\u2019s election is incredibly well deserved,\u201d said John Hennessy, president emeritus of Stanford University and an NAE member since 1992.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis election recognizes both his transformative technical contributions, as well as his incredible leadership of NVIDIA for almost 30 years. I have seen many NAE nominations over the past 30 years, Jensen\u2019s was one of the best!\u201d<\/p>\n

Morris Chang, founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. and an NAE member since 2002, added his congratulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cJensen is one of the most visionary engineers and charismatic business leaders I have had the pleasure to work with in the last three decades,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Huang is also a recipient of the Semiconductor Industry Association\u2019s highest honor, the Robert N. Noyce Award, as well as honorary doctorate degrees from Taiwan\u2019s National Chiao Tung University, National Taiwan University and Oregon State University.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
