First large-scale inference cluster with Together AI on IBM Cloud using NVIDIA HGX B300 systems to help enterprises run AI workloads, designed for fast and efficient production

ARMONK, N.Y. and SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) announced a collaboration with Together AI to deliver IBM and NVIDIA AI infrastructure. Under a multi-year $240M agreement between IBM and Together AI, IBM is positioned to deploy a large cluster of NVIDIA HGX B300 systems on IBM Cloud with expected availability in Q1 2027. Together AI will use this cluster to provide open-source model inference. This deployment is the first dedicated, large-scale cluster built for inference on IBM Cloud using HGX B300 systems and NVIDIA Spectrum-X^TM Ethernet networking. According to NVIDIA, it is built to deliver 30x more AI factory output compared to prior generations.

This collaboration aims to enable Together AI to deliver better performance and token economics to enterprises as they look to efficiently scale their AI deployments. Together AI is built on the principle that open-source models are essential for the future of AI and developers should be able to build using open, modular stacks. The company recently raised an $800M Series C financing round at an $8.3B valuation to expand its AI Native Cloud and its platform spans capabilities across inference, training, fine tuning, and agentic workflows. The company reports that it has seen significant momentum for its inference product, now serving 400 trillion tokens monthly.         

Together AI selected IBM with NVIDIA because of their innovative product roadmaps and their ability to deliver GPU capacity at the pace required for rapid AI scaling and lowest token cost. Building on IBM's expertise in delivering enterprise-grade cloud capabilities, this collaboration aims to help Together AI to continue its expansion into the enterprise space while making open-source AI more accessible to developers and enterprises around the world.

"Enterprises want the performance of the best frontier models without the closed-model price tag, and that only works if the infrastructure underneath is fast and reliable at scale," said Vipul Ved Prakash, CEO at Together AI. "Working alongside IBM with NVIDIA gives us that foundation. This cluster lets us bring production-grade inference to more companies, faster, and it's a big step in our push to make open-source AI the obvious choice for enterprises."

IBM and NVIDIA Expand Collaboration to Power the Next Wave of AI Innovation

"Enterprises are in a race to adopt agentic AI at scale to drive real business outcomes," said Alan Peacock, General Manager of IBM Cloud. "IBM and NVIDIA are delivering scalable, economical, enterprise-grade AI infrastructure that can help Together AI accelerate innovation for the next generation of AI infrastructure."

"AI factories are becoming essential enterprise infrastructure—like electricity and telecommunications—turning compute and data into intelligence," said Dion Harris, Senior Director, HPC and AI Infrastructure Solutions, NVIDIA. "With NVIDIA HGX B300 systems and NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking on IBM Cloud, IBM and Together AI will deliver an accelerated computing platform to help enterprises deploy open-source AI with the performance, efficiency and scale required for real-time AI services."

This work is the latest example of a larger collaboration between IBM and NVIDIA, who continue to work together to advance AI across infrastructure and software, to deliver performance and efficiency for enterprise and startup clients. A hybrid environment on IBM Cloud powered by NVIDIA GPUs connected with NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking and Together AI's inference platform gives organizations a reliable foundation to build, deploy and scale AI systems. Additionally, IBM and NVIDIA recently announced progress across GPU-native data analytics, unstructured data extraction, on-premises and cloud infrastructure, and consulting services. These advancements are designed to help organizations operationalize AI at scale. For more information about the IBM and NVIDIA collaboration, visit www.ibm.com/products/gpu-ai-accelerator/nvidia.

Die Wolftank Group hat auf ihrer ordentlichen Hauptversammlung am 12. Juni 2026 den Kurs für die nächsten Jahre abgesteckt und zugleich die Kapitalmarktkompetenz im Aufsichtsrat ausgebaut. Die Aktionäre des auf Umwelttechnologien und emissionsfreie Infrastrukturlösungen spezialisierten Unternehmens stimmten allen zur Beschlussfassung vorgelegten Tagesordnungspunkten zu. Zentrale Themen waren die Präsentation des Jahresergebnisses 2025, die neue Wachstumsstrategie „GreenLead 2030“ sowie eine Satzungsänderung zur Erweiterung des Aufsichtsrats.

Mit „GreenLead 2030“ peilt die Wolftank Group nach Unternehmensangaben einen Umsatz von 250 Millionen Euro und eine EBITDA-Marge von zwölf Prozent an. Nach der Vorstellung der Ergebnisse für 2025 folgte die Hauptversammlung dem Vorschlag des Vorstands, den im Jahresabschluss zum 31. Dezember 2025 ausgewiesenen Bilanzverlust auf neue Rechnung vorzutragen. Zugleich wurden Vorstand und Aufsichtsrat für das abgelaufene Geschäftsjahr entlastet, was als Vertrauensbeweis der Aktionäre in die Unternehmensführung gewertet werden kann.

Strukturell stellte Wolftank die Weichen über eine Satzungsänderung, mit der die Höchstzahl der Aufsichtsratsmitglieder von fünf auf sechs angehoben wurde. Neben den bisherigen Mitgliedern Dr. Andreas Aufschnaiter (Vorsitz), Dr. Peter Podesser (stellvertretender Vorsitz), Dr. Peter Werth, David Hofmann und Raphaela Lindlbauer wurde erstmals Marcel Maschmeyer in das Kontrollgremium gewählt. Damit wird das Gremium um eine zusätzliche Stimme mit ausgewiesener Expertise im Investment- und Kapitalmarktbereich ergänzt.

Maschmeyer ist Vorstand der Paladin Langfrist KGaA und Geschäftsführer der Paladin Invest GmbH. Das auf börsennotierte Small- und Mid-Cap-Unternehmen spezialisierte Investmenthaus Paladin hat sein Engagement bei der Wolftank Group im vergangenen Jahr deutlich erhöht und zählt inzwischen zu den größten Aktionären des Unternehmens. Mit dem Einzug des Paladin-Vertreters in den Aufsichtsrat bindet Wolftank einen wichtigen Investor enger ein und verstärkt zugleich das Profil des Unternehmens gegenüber dem Kapitalmarkt.
