Firmus signs AI infrastructure agreements with Meta across Asia-Pacific

AI infrastructure company Firmus has signed strategic agreements with Meta to supply GPU compute capacity at its AI factories across Southeast Asia, with the deals covering contracted capacity and options for further expansion.

The agreements will support Meta's AI research, model development and training workloads, and are built on NVIDIA's full-stack DSX platform.

Meta is already an existing Firmus customer in Australia, operating NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems at Firmus' Melbourne AI factory - which the company describes as the largest deployment of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra systems in the Southern Hemisphere.

Firmus designs, manufactures and operates AI factories for large-scale AI workloads. Its HyperCube platform, co-designed with NVIDIA, integrates liquid cooling, power and mechanical systems into factory-built modules deployable across the region. The latest generation supports NVIDIA GB300 and Vera Rubin NVL72 systems as well as Spectrum-X networking.

"We see Firmus as a long-term strategic infrastructure partner as we build for the next generation of AI across Asia-Pacific and expand the infrastructure supporting our AI research and model development efforts - the foundation of personal superintelligence," said Gaya Nagarajan, vice president of engineering infrastructure at Meta.

“Meta’s AI research and model development activities require infrastructure capable of supporting some of the world’s most demanding AI workloads. Firmus’ AI Factory build-out across Asia-Pacific has the scale to support and grow these ambitions," said Tim Rosenfield, co-founder and co-chief executive at Firmus.
