Georgia will gain NVIDIA computing power for training AI models

Silknet’s Georgian telecom operator subsidiary, Silk Cloud, has announced the deployment of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra infrastructure in Georgia. This is the first system of its kind in the country and the first step in creating Georgia’s sovereign AI infrastructure.

The infrastructure will be built using NVIDIA HGX B300 systems from HPE. The launch is scheduled for 2027, following the acquisition of necessary permits.

The new capacity will be available to companies, startups, researchers, and organizations. They will be able to train and deploy modern AI models without sending data abroad. With Silk Cloud, businesses can integrate AI into their operations, create large language models in Georgian, and develop applications tailored to local needs.

Another advantage of the project relates to data storage. Organizations will be able to store data within the country, helping them comply with localization requirements.

The launch of the NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra system is part of Silknet’s long-term strategy for developing digital technologies and AI.
