What NVIDIA Elite Partner status means in practice

NVIDIA® Partner Network tiers are earned through verified platform expertise, customer deployments, and technical certification, not purchased. Elite is the highest tier. For a team evaluating integration partners, that distinction matters for one reason: the engineering team on the other side of the engagement has been certified by NVIDIA on the tools and platforms your project runs on and Elite status gives that team early access to NVIDIA roadmaps and solutions, so they’re always building with what’s next.

The table below maps Connect Tech’s NVIDIA credentials to what each one means for a CTai LABS customer engagement.

Credential What it means for your Physical ai project
NVIDIA Elite Partner Highest tier in the NVIDIA Partner Network. Requires demonstrated platform expertise, verified customer deployments, and ongoing technical training. Connect Tech has held NVIDIA Elite Partner status across multiple generations of the Jetson platform for over a decade.
NVIDIA Jetsonâ„¢ platform expertise Verified across the full Jetson product line: Jetson Orinâ„¢ Nano, Jetson Orinâ„¢ NX, Jetson AGX Orinâ„¢, Jetson AGX Orinâ„¢ Industrial, and Jetson Thorâ„¢. More than a decade of production of Board Support Package (BSP) development, carrier board design, and deployment experience on Jetson hardware, and so much more.
NVIDIA TensorRTâ„¢ Production-grade model optimization for Jetson inference. CTai LABS uses TensorRT for INT8/FP16 quantization and engine optimization against the real power mode and thermal envelope of the target module.
NVIDIA Isaacâ„¢ ROS Accelerated ROS 2 packages for perception, navigation, sensor fusion, and hardware abstraction. Validated on Connect Tech carriers with full BSP support. The ROS-Ready Launchpad solution packages this for immediate deployment.
NVIDIA JetPack™ SDK Full platform stack from OS (Linux for Tegra) through CUDA®, cuDNN, TensorRT, and developer tools. Connect Tech writes and maintains BSPs for every carrier board, built on top of JetPack and validated with each new SDK release.
NVIDIA Metropolis Scalable video analytics and multi-camera ai microservices for smart infrastructure, retail, and industrial monitoring applications. Deployable on-prem on Connect Tech Edge hardware without cloud dependency.

What this means for your project

What it produces is engineering depth that a non-certified team cannot replicate from documentation alone, and it means your project gets that depth without having to coordinate across multiple vendors: hardware, integration, and NVIDIA expertise all under one roof.

Icons NC Clock
Early platform access

Connect Tech works with NVIDIA on new platform releases before they reach the general market. Carrier boards for new Jetson modules, including Jetson Thor, are developed in parallel with the module itself. That means CTai LABS customers get validated hardware and BSPs earlier, and first-to-market advantage for teams building on new platforms.

Direct NVIDIA technical support

Elite Partner status includes a direct line into NVIDIA technical resources. When an integration issue involves the NVIDIA software stack, the CTai LABS team does not work through public forums. It works through the partner channel, which compresses resolution time on the integration problems that matter most, and helps with the lifecycle of your project.

Icons NC Gear Path
Certified tool depth, not workshop familiarity

TensorRT, Isaac ROS, JetPack, DeepStream, and Holoscan are not configured by reading documentation. They are configured by a team that has shipped production systems with them across robotics, defense, industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, and healthcare. That difference shows up in integration time and in the reliability of the deployed system.

Icons NVIDIA 1
Built with NVIDIA, established on Connect Tech hardware

CTai LABS engagement runs on Connect Tech carrier boards with NVIDIA Jetson modules. The NVIDIA software stack is validated against the specific BSP and thermal configuration of the carrier, not a development kit, for the deployment environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long has Connect Tech been an Elite NVIDIA Partner?

Connect Tech has supported the NVIDIA Jetson platform for over a decade and holds Elite Partner status, the highest tier within the NVIDIA Partner Network. That long-standing relationship has grown into deep engineering expertise across NVIDIA’s Edge AI ecosystem, from hardware design to certified support.

We design and manufacture solutions across industry-standard form factors like COM Express® and SMARC, as well as other Edge AI platforms like Toradex, giving customers flexibility across a range of deployments.

Elite is the highest tier in the NVIDIA Partner Network. It requires demonstrated technical expertise across NVIDIA platforms, verified customer deployments, and ongoing certification. It is not a purchased designation. Connect Tech has held Elite status across multiple generations of the Jetson platform, from Jetson Xavier through Jetson Orin and Jetson Thor.

Yes. Elite Partner status includes priority technical support through the partner channel, early access to platform SDK updates, and participation in NVIDIA’s joint go-to-market programs. For a customer, this means faster resolution of platform-level issues and access to certified tools that are not available to non-partner integrators.

Connect Tech writes and maintains BSPs for its own carrier boards, built on NVIDIA’s JetPack SDK and validated with each new SDK release. BSP updates are co-developed with NVIDIA’s platform release cycle rather than trying to retrofit. That means customers on Connect Tech hardware get JetPack compatibility earlier and with higher confidence than teams relying on third-party BSPs.

Connect Tech’s NVIDIA Elite Partner status is verifiable through NVIDIA’s Jetson Ecosystem Partners directory at developer.nvidia.com/embedded/ecosystem. Connect Tech’s listing there shows “NPN Partner Type: Elite,” along with its supported Jetson products and industries served.
