NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super – Hands-on Workshop
Viman Nagar, Pune, INThis hands-on session dives deep into NVIDIA Nemotron™ 3 Super, a powerful 120B open hybrid Mamba-Transformer Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model built for complex reasoning, long-context analysis, and autonomous problem-solving. You will explore key architectural innovations like Latent MoE and Multi-Token Prediction, and learn how to build, optimize, and deploy real-world AI systems using NVIDIA’s open weights, datasets, and deployment recipes.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
AI/ML Engineers & Researchers: Professionals building advanced LLMs and specialized reasoning models.
Generative AI Developers: Developers creating complex, multi-agent AI applications (such as software development or cybersecurity triaging agents).
Data Scientists: Practitioners interested in state-of-the-art training techniques like Native NVFP4 pretraining and multi-environment reinforcement learning (RL).
DevOps & MLOps Engineers: Professionals looking to deploy high-throughput, low-latency AI models using vLLM, SGLang, or NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM.AGENDA
10:00 AM – 10:30 AM: NVIDIA Nemotron strategy – open datasets, weights, frameworks, and recipes
10:30 AM – 11:00 AM: Deep dive into Nemotron 3 Super architecture design
11:00 AM – 12:15 PM: Efficient serving and deployment using vLLM, SGLang, and TensorRT-LLM Cookbooks
12:15 AM – 1:30 PM: Building agentic workflows using Nemotron models
1:30 PM - 2:15 PM: Lunch
2:15 PM - 2:30 PM: Talk by Partner
2:30 PM - 2:45 PM: Paper/project presentation 1
2:30 PM - 2:45 PM: Paper/project presentation 2
2:45 PM - 3:30 PM: Talk by Partner
3:30 PM: Networking & Wrap-UpKEY LEARNINGS
By the end of the workshop, attendees will be able to:- Understand Advanced Architectures: Grasp the mechanics behind the Hybrid Mamba-Transformer backbone, Latent MoE (which calls 4x as many experts for the same compute cost), and Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) for built-in speculative decoding.
- Navigate the Training Pipeline: Understand how the model achieves stability and accuracy through Native NVFP4 pretraining and trajectory-based reinforcement learning across diverse environments (using NeMo Gym and NeMo RL).
- Implement the "Super + Nano" Pattern: Learn how to architect multi-agent workflows that smartly route simple tasks to Nemotron 3 Nano and complex planning/reasoning tasks to Nemotron 3 Super.
- Deploy and Fine-Tune: Utilize NVIDIA’s open resources and deployment cookbooks (vLLM, SGLang, TensorRT-LLM) to customize and run the model on your own infrastructure.
