Kickstart Your AI Startup with an Inception Award

Have a game-changing AI product? Here’s your opportunity to win cash — and industry-wide recognition — to accelerate your work. At the GPU Technology Conference in late March, NVIDIA will be handing out Inception award cash prizes to the world’s best AI startups. Inception is our virtual accelerator program, which now supports more than 2,200 fledgling businesses revolutionizing industries with AI. Last year, the prize purse was worth $1.5 million. This year, we’re seeking 12 startups across three categories — healthcare, autonomous systems and enterprise — to compete on March 6, ahead of the main event. This dynamic dozen will present on stage in front of an audience of international VCs, executives and media. Submit your proposal to be one of them.
