This IDC Market Note examines how NVIDIA is expanding its role from AI hardware provider to strategic enabler of enterprise AI through deepening partnerships with global IT services firms. Triggered by announcements at NVIDIA’s GTC 2025, the document highlights a new wave of NVIDIA collaborations with Accenture, Deloitte, Capgemini, and EY, each of which leverages NVIDIA’s AI platforms to develop and deploy industry-specific agentic AI solutions. IDC examines the mutual strategic interests behind these alliances, the shifting dynamics between services providers and traditional software vendors, and the growing importance of integrated hardware + software + services ecosystems. The report outlines future scenarios, including the potential for closer joint go-to-market models and private cloud-focused collaborations involving infrastructure vendors like HPE.
