NVIDIA's GTC 2025 conference kicks off on March 17, with CEO Jen-Hsun Huang's keynote speech scheduled for March 18. The conference will involve 1,000 sessions, 2,000 speakers and nearly 400 exhibitors. Bank of America (BAC) analysts said in a note last Wednesday that they "expect NVIDIA to launch an attractive and expected update on Blackwell Ultra," focusing on inference models for inference. In addition, Mizuho Securities analyst Vijay Rakesh speculated in a note that NVIDIA may offer a new quantum computing product roadmap at the event. Huang Renxun had previously been skeptical that practical quantum computers are still 10 to 20 years away, which contrasts with Google CEO Sundar Pichai's more optimistic 5 to 10-year timeline.
