The manufacturing industry is at the forefront of a technological revolution driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and edge computing. These technologies aren’t just ideas for the future — they’re already making factories smarter, more autonomous and more efficient than ever before.

Soon, many manufacturing leaders will see the latest groundbreaking advancements in action at two upcoming events: Hannover Messe and Dell Technologies World 2025. NVIDIA will join Dell Technologies to showcase solutions that redefine smart manufacturing, from real-time AI video analytics to simplified AI deployment at the edge.

Learn how to accelerate and scale manufacturing transformation at Hannover Messe 

Hannover Messe, the world’s leading industrial trade show, is setting the stage for the future of manufacturing with this year’s theme: energizing sustainable industries.

At Dell Technologies booth (#C52, Hall 15), we’re partnering with NVIDIA and SoftServe to showcase “Enhanced Productivity at Scale.” This demo will highlight how manufacturers use real-time AI video analytics to drive process optimization and improve product quality in a produce plant. 

Attendees will see firsthand how NVIDIA accelerated computing and Dell’s NativeEdge work together to help manufacturers achieve unprecedented efficiency by detecting defects, identifying safety issues and uncovering opportunities for process improvement — all in real time.

We are also showcasing nine other immersive demos that showcase how Dell’s innovative solutions are helping scale industrial transformation. These demos are built in close collaboration with market leaders like AMD, Eaton, PTC, Accenture, Palo Alto Networks, Inductive Automation, XMPro, Litmus, Vathos, GermanEdge, CapGemini, HiveMQ, GE Vernova, Symphony AI and others.

Willie Reed, general manager of manufacturing for Dell Technologies, says, “Real-time AI solutions like this have the power to transform manufacturing operations, enabling businesses to innovate faster and more securely while reducing downtime and inefficiencies.”

Here’s the impact this brings for manufacturers today:

• Delivers real-time insights: NativeEdge securely scales and optimizes edge operations with centralized management, zero-touch deployment and automated processes, delivering instant insights without the latency of cloud solutions. 
• Enhances productivity: With flexibility for various applications and frameworks, NativeEdge empowers manufacturers to deploy and manage AI efficiently, improving agility and resilience in industrial operations. 
• Simplifies AI deployment: Backed by a Zero Trust security framework and a secure supply chain, NativeEdge with NVIDIA AI simplifies AI implementation, making advanced technology accessible while ensuring secure and reliable edge operations.

If that’s not enough, our booth at Hannover Messe will also: 

• Serve as a hub to discuss how AI can drive sustainable manufacturing practices, from the industrial edge to the multicloud.
• Connect attendees with our manufacturing subject-matter experts and industry leaders — schedule time with us through your Dell Technologies account manager.
• Be a must-visit spot, especially during our Customer and Partner Appreciation Event. Join us on Wednesday, April 2, 2025, from 4:30 PM–6:00 PM, for refreshments and great conversations with industry peers.

Experience innovation at Dell Technologies World

At Dell Technologies World 2025 in Las Vegas, we’ll bring the same “Enhanced Productivity at Scale” demo to center stage, alongside even more solutions tailor-made for manufacturing. 

Reed notes, “Dell Technologies World is where manufacturers can see innovation in action. It’s not just about new tech — it’s about understanding how AI, edge computing and advanced analytics are transforming operations today. This is an opportunity to explore how NVIDIA’s technologies embedded within Dell’s platforms work together to address industrial challenges with intelligent, scalable solutions.”

Highlights to look for at the show include:

• Blueprints for seamless AI deployment: Many manufacturers need a blueprint to get started with AI solutions. Dell’s NativeEdge, powered by NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, automates AI workflows and speeds inferencing at the edge. Pre-configured Blueprints provide a starting point for solutions like video analytics (Metropolis), speech and translation (Riva) and AI inferencing (NIM). With zero-touch and zero-trust deployment, manufacturers can scale AI more easily and securely across their operations.
• Advanced, integrated AI-powered analytics: NVIDIA-powered AI tools help manufacturers make smarter decisions by improving predictive maintenance, quality control and energy optimization. But AI alone isn’t enough — NativeEdge ensures insights are seamlessly integrated and actionable across operations. It simplifies deployment, making it easier to scale AI without IT complexity and turn data into real results.

Himanshu Iyer, principal product marketing manager, manufacturing industry at NVIDIA, adds, “Together, NVIDIA and Dell Technologies are advancing the future of manufacturing. By simplifying AI at the edge, we’re unlocking a new level of efficiency and innovation for industrial operations.”

Beyond experiencing powerful demonstrations, attendees at Dell Technologies World 2025 can participate in breakout sessions, engage directly with our experts, and participate in discussions on how to future-proof their manufacturing operations. 

Partnership drives innovation

One of the key themes across both events is partnership. Collaboration between technology leaders like Dell Technologies and NVIDIA has been instrumental in delivering scalable, secure and high-performance solutions for manufacturers. 

At Dell Technologies, we believe firmly in the idea that transformative innovation happens at the intersection of strategy and technology. That’s why we’ve partnered with global leaders like NVIDIA and SoftServe to ensure our solutions meet the real-world challenges faced by manufacturers. By bringing together our expertise in edge computing, AI and secure infrastructure, we're helping manufacturers achieve outcomes that simply weren’t possible before.

This commitment to collaboration has led to:

• Tangible impact: Solutions like our edge AI analytics help solve real challenges in quality control, worker safety and production efficiency. 
• Future-proofing: By integrating GenAI and digital twin technologies, we’re helping manufacturers model, predict and optimize operations like never before. 
• Sustainability: Efficient operations not only reduce costs but also support sustainable manufacturing practices — an essential goal for the modern industry. 

Where to see us in action

Manufacturing as we know it is evolving. With the rise of AI and edge computing, manufacturers have an enormous opportunity to streamline workflows, increase productivity and achieve next-level sustainability. 

Throughout Hannover Messe and Dell Technologies World, Dell and NVIDIA will show how these technologies can be applied to solve critical challenges on the factory floor and beyond. We look forward to demonstrating how our innovative solutions can empower you to redefine what’s possible in manufacturing. These are the can’t-miss events for anyone ready to adopt cutting-edge technologies and shape the future of industrial operations.

We hope you’ll join us at Hannover Messe (March 31–April 4, 2025 | Hall 15, Booth #C52) and Dell Technologies World (May 19–22, 2025 | Las Vegas). To learn more about how we’re leading the charge toward smarter, greener and more efficient manufacturing in the meantime, visit www.dell.com/manufacturing.
