According to NVIDIA Generative AI, AI Day Singapore, which takes place September 22-23 at the Raffles City convention center, provides participants with the opportunity to explore hands-on training, expert-led sessions and cutting-edge tools to accelerate work in artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. At the event, NVIDIA and its partners are showcasing AI breakthroughs across the Southeast Asia region. AI is becoming a matter of national strategy, and governments are looking to move from pilots to production to achieve impact at scale, creating robust AI solutions that reflect local languages, cultures, priorities and economic needs. NVIDIA is working to enable all countries to become AI nations by providing the technology, infrastructure, ecosystem and expertise needed to make it happen. To accelerate this transition across Southeast Asia, NVIDIA is helping countries move from experimentation to deployment of AI at production scale through open models, developer tools, and a broad partner ecosystem. Together with partners, NVIDIA is focused on four key areas:
improving government performance and service delivery; developing accessible AI services for citizens and supporting local businesses; strengthening critical infrastructure and public safety; supporting startups, developers and researchers to strengthen national AI and innovation capabilities in every country. Singapore's HTX (Home Team Science and Technology Agency) begins research using NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super and Nemotron 3 Nano Omni to improve security. Nemotron Super has the potential to support complex reasoning and agent-based workflows, while Omni's unified vision, audio and language capabilities can help HTX develop multi-modal applications based on real-world operational data. Taken together, the models can strengthen HTX's ability to deploy secure, locally controlled AI across Singapore. NCS is advancing the adoption of agent-based AI in enterprises and the public sector, using Nemotron and NVIDIA Blueprint models for video search and summarization (VSS), and developing physical AI for practical humanoid robotics applications to address safety and security requirements.
accuracy, responsiveness and data management. ST Engineering uses NVIDIA NeMo tools and NVIDIA cuOpt software to develop its AI Studio platform and deploy agent-based AI solutions across its businesses such as Marine MRO. Outside of Singapore, similar work is already underway across the region. Malaysia's YTL AI Lab is refining Nemotron's models for enterprise and civic services, while Viettel AI is doing the same for Vietnamese-language applications. In Thailand, the Big Data Institute and iApp Technology, as members of the ThaiLLM Collaboration, are researching Nemotron as a reference model. With an initial focus on legal applications, iApp Technology adapts Nemotron 3 Nano, enhancing OpenThai 2.0 Legal with legal data in Thai using the NVIDIA NeMo framework. The model is released as open source to the Thai developer community and serves as the engine for the chatbot assistant Thanoy, which already serves about 43,000 users. In Brunei, Antrique has created an AI innovation platform to improve productivity in the country's food sector. Open NVIDIA models across the region
Cosmos and NVIDIA VSS Blueprint advance smart city solutions. Malaysia's ITMAX is using Cosmos with VSS to improve urban traffic, while Thailand's AS-TECH is using the same stack to improve passenger flow at airports. Leading enterprises, technology providers and research organizations across Southeast Asia are building custom AI models and applications based on NVIDIA Nemotron's open models, datasets and libraries, accelerating the development of AI tailored to the region's languages, industries and communities. NVIDIA Nemotron provides the foundation for regional AI ecosystems, allowing organizations to customize, control, and own models that meet their specific requirements. Nemotron also offers personalized datasets that provide locally relevant synthetic data reflecting a region's population, languages, and workforce. Enterprises in Singapore are adopting NVIDIA Nemotron for a variety of use cases. AI Singapore expands the SEA-LION family of models to include open NVIDIA Nemotron models and NVIDIA NeMo tools. SEA-LION is an open family of models designed for
I languages and cultures of Southeast Asia. Hummingbird Bioscience is collaborating with LynxKite to develop an explainable toxic knowledge base based on Nemotron 3.5 Lightning and NeMo Retriever using in silico simulations. The collaboration aims to integrate complex public and private data from a variety of third-party file formats, creating a comprehensive, unified framework for robust analysis and reasoning that helps reduce risk and accelerate drug development. The Vietnamese company Viettel AI is actively developing Nemotron 3 Super for the Vietnamese language and agent applications. The model achieved the highest rank in both the VMLU benchmark and the company's internal benchmark and will be adopted in Legal AI, an agent solution that will serve both Viettel Group employees and external clients. Also in Vietnam, FPT Smart Cloud co-developed Nemotron-Personas-Vietnam, an open dataset based on Vietnamese demographic and cultural data and allows local developers to further train and evaluate localized AI models. Get started developing with NVIDIA Nemotron with skills and tutorials that help partners set up open
Nemotron models for their languages and areas. Singapore-based Sea Limited has become the first enterprise in the ASEAN region to adopt the NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform, further strengthening the company's AI capabilities to better serve and create meaningful economic opportunities for millions of consumers and small businesses across Southeast Asia. Serving hundreds of millions of users through its platforms Garena, Monee and Shopee, Sea has already implemented AI in its businesses to make its services more useful and accessible. Now, with NVIDIA Vera Rubin, Sea will build on these efforts by developing and deploying AI models and intelligent agents at greater scale to meet the changing needs of their communities. On Shopee, AI is already helping merchants reduce the time and effort required to create informative product descriptions, improve product discovery and deepen customer engagement, and enable more informed business decisions. These capabilities enable small and medium-sized enterprises in Southeast Asia, many of which operate with limited resources, to scale their businesses using enterprise-grade AI technologies
tia previously available only to large corporations. Monee, Sea's digital financial service, applies AI in areas such as fraud detection and credit risk assessment, supporting Monee's ability to provide simple, accessible and inclusive digital financial services. For small businesses and consumers who are not served by traditional financial services, these opportunities can significantly increase access to financial instruments. At Garena, Sea's digital entertainment and gaming division, AI is used to enhance the gaming experience, supporting the company's efforts to create fun, inclusive and safe online spaces that bring players together. NVIDIA Vera Rubin will provide advanced computing infrastructure to further develop this foundation, enabling Sea to accelerate innovation, scale AI applications more widely, and deepen its impact on the communities it serves.
