The global buildout of AI infrastructure reached a new milestone today — Firebird, an emerging AI cloud, launched the CIS region’s largest AI factory in Armenia, establishing a new AI computing hub powered by NVIDIA accelerated computing and Dell Technologies high-performance AI infrastructure.

Nikol Pashinyan, prime minister of the Republic of Armenia; Zhaslan Madiyev, deputy prime minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan; and David Allen, U.S. chargé d`affaires, a.i. in Armenia, attended the AI factory opening ceremony.

AI factories are the foundational infrastructure for the AI era, providing the computing capacity needed to train, fine-tune and deploy AI models for every domain at scale.

Building the Infrastructure to Create Intelligence at Home

While AI services are available globally, countries also need the capacity to develop and run AI for their own languages, industries and national priorities. Firebird’s AI factory brings that capacity to Armenia, giving developers, startups, enterprises, universities and public institutions the compute to build and scale AI at home.
