At GTC Berlin’s First Stop, Barcelona’s Builders Put Physical AI to Work
Before NVIDIA's keynote in Berlin, the road to GTC began in Barcelona — with a royal palace, hundreds of developers, and a very particular kind of robot.
The Palacio de Pedralbes sits at the edge of Barcelona on land that once belonged to the Spanish royal family. On Tuesday morning, it belonged to builders.
NVIDIA's Build-a-Claw brought together hundreds of developers, researchers and AI enthusiasts from across Spain and Europe for a morning of hands-on AI at the historic site. Using open models and NVIDIA's platform, participants built robotic claw machines capable of picking up objects — physical AI, made from scratch, in a few hours. The crowd was rapt as it watched robotic arms perform grasping tasks, learn from their own failures and improve over the span of time it takes to eat breakfast.
For the crowd on hand it was an example of how to build and train robots using open models not just quickly, but safely and securely something Spain's developer community is embracing. Check back for more robotic breakthroughs across Europe on the road to GTC Berlin.

From Earth to Orbit, France’s Ecosystem Delivers Agentic Computing at Scale With NVIDIA
Companies in France are deploying agentic computing across industries spanning space, financial services, the public sector and scientific research, demonstrating how the country’s ecosystem has moved from ambition to application.
France’s progress sits on deliberate groundwork.
The AI Action Summit in February 2025 and Choose France Summits in 2025 and 2026 anchored major compute commitments on French soil. What the ecosystem has built since then spans the full stack.
