NVIDIA and Synopsys announced an expanded partnership to accelerate engineering and design using GPU-accelerated computing, AI, and digital twin technologies across industries.
NVIDIA and Synopsys announced an expanded, strategic partnership to revolutionize design and engineering across industries.
R&D teams, from the semiconductor industry to aerospace, automotive, industrial and beyond face significant engineering challenges including increasing workflow complexity, escalating development costs and time-to-market pressure.
This expanded partnership will integrate the strengths of NVIDIA's AI and accelerated computing with Synopsys' market-leading engineering solutions to deliver capabilities enabling R&D teams to design, simulate and verify intelligent products with greater precision, speed and at lower cost. In addition, NVIDIA invested $2 billion in Synopsys common stock at a purchase price of $414.79 per share.
Multi-year collaboration spans NVIDIA CUDA accelerated computing, agentic and physical AI, and Omniverse digital twins to achieve simulation speed and scale previously unattainable through traditional CPU computing – opening new market opportunities across engineering.
To further adoption of GPU-accelerated engineering solutions, the companies will collaborate in engineering and marketing activities.
The multi-year partnership builds on strong, existing technology collaborations between the companies and includes initiatives to broadly accelerate Synopsys applications, advance agentic AI engineering, connect physical and digital worlds through digital twins, offer cloud-ready solutions, and develop joint go-to-market initiatives. This partnership is not exclusive and the companies continue to engage with the broader semiconductor and electronic design automation ecosystem to create shared growth opportunities.
Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO, NVIDIA
CUDA GPU-accelerated computing is revolutionizing design — enabling simulation at unprecedented speed and scale, from atoms to transistors, from chips to complete systems, creating fully functional digital twins inside the computer. Our partnership with Synopsys harnesses the power of NVIDIA accelerated computing and AI to reimagine engineering and design — empowering engineers to invent the extraordinary products that will shape our future.
Sassine Ghazi, President and CEO, Synopsys
The complexity and cost of developing next-generation intelligent systems demands engineering solutions with a deeper integration of electronics and physics, accelerated by AI capabilities and compute. No two companies are better positioned to deliver AI-powered, holistic system design solutions than Synopsys and NVIDIA. Together we will re-engineer engineering and empower innovators everywhere to more efficiently realize their innovations.
