LONDON, June 09, 2026–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nebius, the AI cloud company, today announced the Physical AI Living Lab, a six-month program that equips British and European robotics startups with NVIDIA’s physical AI development tools and Nebius’s AI cloud infrastructure.
Physical AI depends on large-scale simulation, synthetic data, and accelerated compute that most early-stage robotics companies cannot assemble on their own. The Physical AI Living Lab removes that barrier, putting the same class of tooling and compute used to build physical AI at scale into the hands of founders, so they can move from simulation to real-world deployment faster.
The Lab builds on Nebius and NVIDIA’s collaboration to create a cloud platform for robotics and physical AI. The companies intend to extend the Physical AI Living Lab to other regions over time and bring in further cohorts as the program grows.
Evan Helda, Head of Physical AI at Nebius, said:
“Most robotics teams can build a strong model — the bottleneck is getting the simulation, synthetic data, and compute in place to take it further. The Living Lab is built around that problem: founders get the full NVIDIA physical AI stack on Nebius AI Cloud and direct time with our engineers, so they spend time building robots, not assembling infrastructure. That proximity works both ways — working shoulder-to-shoulder with these teams sharpens how we run physical AI ourselves, and that feedback loop is exactly what we…
