Today at Tech World @ CES 2026 at Sphere in Las Vegas, Lenovo announced a suite of purpose-built enterprise servers, solutions and services for AI inferencing workloads expanding the Lenovo Hybrid AI Advantage portfolio. Setting the stage for the next era of AI, Lenovo is advancing the field of inferencing and eliminating hurdles to power real-world AI use cases ranging from storefront customer transactions to advanced healthcare applications, including rapid diagnostics and treatment planning in critical care environments.
AI Inferencing marks a significant pivotal shift from training Large Language Models (LLMs) to leveraging fully trained models to analyze unseen data to make instant decisions in real-world settings. Moving from training to action turns the significant capital committed to AI into tangible business return, and invaluable competitive gain. Lenovo’s new AI Inferencing suite maximizes return, unifying and connecting an organization’s data across the cloud, data center, and edge to power AI workloads wherever they deliver the greatest output. Futurum estimates the global AI inference infrastructure market growing from $5.0 billion in 2024 to $48.8 billion by 2030, representing a six-year CAGR of 46.3%.
“Enterprises today need AI that can turn massive amounts of data into insight the moment it’s created,” said Ashley Gorakhpurwalla, Executive Vice President, Lenovo and President of Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group. “With Lenovo’s new inferencing-optimized infrastructure, we are giving customers that real-time advantage—transforming massive amount of data into instant, actionable intelligence that fuels stronger decisions, greater security, and faster innovation.”
