AI Now Summit 2026

Mistral unveiled a new AI stack for industrial engineering, partnering with Airbus, BMW, and ASML to optimize design, simulation, and production while ensuring data security. Their agentic AI tool, Vibe, now handles long-horizon tasks like coding and research, while a new 10 MW data center in France will enhance compute control and security by 2026. These advancements reinforce Mistral’s focus on secure, high-impact AI solutions for critical enterprise workflows.

An integrated AI stack combining advanced physics models, engineering expertise, and robotics to transform mission-critical industrial operations. The solution enables industrial engineers to accelerate design, eliminate simulation bottlenecks, and optimize asset performance; while maintaining full control over proprietary data, IP, and production environments.

With Airbus, we are implementing advanced AI at the core of the company's operations and processes, from initial design to on-board capabilities. Our partnership will expand across Airbus' commercial aircraft, helicopter, defence, and space activities. It will support the next decade of innovation, contribute to improve flight safety, and maintain full control of critical data; all while adhering to strict security requirements.

For BMW Group, we are a central partner for their “Large Industry Model” (LIM) initiative. The collaboration unifies engineering knowledge and AI expertise to build multimodal reasoning models on engineering data for complex development use cases such as crash simulation.

ASML has started working with us to tackle challenging engineering use cases, such as optimizing the design of high-performance parts, surrogate models and control loops, with the intent to demonstrate that AI grounded in deep domain expertise, system knowledge and real-world constraints can create real value in advanced semiconductor environments.
