NVIDIA Open Season Part 1: Build With AI You Control (Nemotron)

· By Angelica Alinsod · 2 min read

Nemotron is NVIDIA’s family of open-weight models. It comes in different sizes, from lighter models suited to efficient workloads to larger models for more demanding tasks, so teams can choose what fits their product.

​Open-weight models give you more control over the models you build on. You can download them, fine-tune them on your own data, and choose where they run.

​Open-weight models are becoming more capable, and that’s changing what small teams can build.

​About the event

​Building with AI You Can Control (Nemotron) is a presentation-led session. It’s pitched at technically inclined founders and operators, so it’s accessible but still substantive. You don’t need an engineering background to get real value from it.

​An NVIDIA speaker will give an overview of the Nemotron family, explaining what the models are for, how they compare, and what it takes for a startup to deploy one. The session finishes with open Q&A.

​This is the first half of Open Season, CDH’s afternoon and evening on the future of open-weight AI.

You can register for NVIDIA Open Season Part 2: Building in the Open here.

​How the day will run:

  • ​Session 1: The Nemotron family: An NVIDIA speaker walks through Nemotron Nano, Super and Ultra, explaining what each is built for, how they compare, and why the startup-friendly tier matters for early teams.
  • ​Session 2: Putting it to work: This part covers the real choices behind building on Nemotron, including fine-tuning, running costs and deployment. It’s explained in plain terms and grounded in startup use cases.
  • ​Ask NVIDIA: Bring your questions on Nemotron, tooling and where to start, so you leave knowing your next step.
  • ​Drinks: Stay on for drinks and networking.

​The session will be led by an NVIDIA speaker who works on the Nemotron model family. Stay tuned for the announcement!
