LAS VEGAS, Jan 7 — GeokHub China’s Lenovo, the world’s largest personal computer maker, has unveiled a major expansion of its artificial intelligence ambitions through a new partnership with U.S. chipmaker Nvidia, aimed at accelerating the deployment of large-scale AI data centres.
Announced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, the collaboration introduces what Lenovo calls an AI Cloud Gigafactory — a bundled data-centre solution designed to help cloud providers bring advanced AI infrastructure online within weeks rather than months.
Under the initiative, Lenovo will combine its liquid-cooled hybrid AI servers with Nvidia’s computing platforms, targeting faster rollout times, lower energy consumption and scalable AI factory-style deployments.
Lenovo Chief Executive Yang Yuanqing, appearing alongside Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, said the initiative sets a new standard for how quickly complex AI environments can be built and expanded globally.
Race to Become an AI Infrastructure Powerhouse
Lenovo, which already manufactures servers and enterprise hardware alongside PCs, is positioning itself as a core infrastructure supplier in the booming AI cloud market as demand for computing power surges.
The company said the new system is designed for AI cloud providers looking to scale rapidly while managing heat, power and operational efficiency — key bottlenecks in modern data-centre construction.
The announcement underscores growing collaboration between hardware manufacturers and chip designers as enterprises race to deploy generative AI, large language models and AI-driven services.
Qira Platform and New AI Devices
Alongside the Nvidia partnership, Lenovo also unveiled Qira, a personal AI platform designed to operate across Lenovo and Motorola devices, including PCs, smartphones, tablets and wearables.
Qira is built to function seamlessly in the background, enabling cross-device intelligence and access to third-party services such as travel bookings and productivity tools.
Lenovo also showcased a range of AI-driven concept products, including:
- Smart AI glasses
- An AI assistant wearable under Project Maxwell
- Experimental devices focused on real-time assistance and contextual computing
The company joins a growing list of global tech firms pushing AI into consumer hardware as competition intensifies.
