How Mistral Is Building Frontier AI for the Enterprise | NVIDIA AI Podcast Ep. 301
Mistral and NVIDIA's Nemotron Coalition will train and release a new open-source frontier model.
“The benefit for everyone involved, really, is that we will have a new open source frontier model that everyone can build off on.”
Mistral CTO Tim Lacroix detailed the company's open-weights philosophy and its deepening NVIDIA partnership via the Nemotron Coalition, which will jointly train and release a new open-source frontier model. He also outlined Mistral's expansion into platform services, agentic hosting, and its own Mistral Compute infrastructure, plus a focus on tailoring smaller, specialized models for enterprise and underserved languages. It matters because it signals a coordinated push to make frontier-level open models a foundation the broader community and enterprises can build on.
