Universo Unveils Next-Generation Physical AI Platform

In a landmark event at VivaTech 2026 held in Paris, Univers has introduced its latest offering— a next-generation Physical AI platform designed to revolutionize how organizations manage their energy, infrastructure, and industrial operations. This innovative platform aims to empower organizations to leverage AI as a sustainable source of competitive advantage.

As Europe strives to enhance its industrial competitiveness and energy security, the challenge lies in applying AI reliably within the physical systems that drive economies. While generative AI has transformed information management, Univers is focused on the next evolutionary phase: enabling real-time observation, decision-making, and actions related to assets, facilities, energy systems, and operational processes.

Built on years of expertise in managing complex physical infrastructures, the Univers Physical AI platform integrates AI and operational intelligence into a single, cohesive framework called the Intelligence Fabric. This system continually learns from operational results, creating what Univers refers to as 'cumulative intelligence' — a growing advantage that allows for the confident deployment of generative, agentic, and autonomous AI in mission-critical environments.

Currently, Univers connects over 400 million devices globally and manages more than 1,000 GW of energy assets while guiding intricate operational processes across the energy, building, transportation, logistics, and industrial sectors. According to Valerio Dilda, Senior Vice President for Europe at Univers, “The future competitive edge of Europe will not only be built around AI but also on its capacity to apply AI in the physical realm. Organizations that pioneer a system of cumulative intelligence within their operations will craft a sustainable advantage in productivity, resilience, and innovation. Our platform for Physical AI lays the foundation for making that possible.”

With centers of excellence focused on Solar, Wind, Mobility, and Energy Resources across Europe, Univers supports organizations in deriving more value from their existing infrastructure while accelerating the transition from digital intelligence to autonomous operations.
