Singtel has joined the NVIDIA Partner Network Cloud Programme and will bring NVIDIA’s full-stack AI platform to enterprises across the region.
Singtel’s NVIDIA-powered AI Cloud will be hosted by Singtel’s Nxera regional data centre business, which will be developing a new generation of sustainable, hyper-connected AI-ready data centres.
Singtel's upcoming hyper-connected green 58MW DC Tuas in Singapore will be one of the first data centres that will be AI ready when it comes into operation in early 2026. DC Tuas will offer a high- density environment suited for AI workloads and will operate at a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.23 at full load, making it one of the most efficient in the industry. Besides DC Tuas, Singtel is developing two other state-of-the-art data centre projects in Indonesia and Thailand. The NVIDIA GPU clusters will run in existing upgraded data centres initially and can be further expanded into the new AI DCs when they are ready for service.
Singtel has had experience in delivering edge cloud services with NVIDIA AI, having trialled GPU services at the 5G@Sentosa testbed for many government agencies since 2021. Singtel’s patented Paragon platform will also enable customers to orchestrate, manage and deploy their various networks, AI and cloud workloads across multiple providers with greater efficiency and at lower costs.
This collaboration supports Singapore’s national AI strategy designed to spur the next phase of economic development by empowering its citizens and businesses with the latest technology. The plan calls for growing the country’s compute infrastructure as well as its specialist pool of AI talent.

This tie-up provides an easy on-ramp for enterprises across all industries which can accelerate their development of generative AI, large language models, AI fine-tuning and other AI workloads. Together with our sustainable AI DCs, 5G network platform and our AI cluster with NVIDIA, these form part of our next-generation digital infrastructure to support AI adoption and digital transformation in Singapore and the region.
Ronnie Vasishta, SVP for Telecom at NVIDIA
Our collaboration with Singtel will combine technologies and expertise to facilitate the development of robust AI infrastructure in Singapore and throughout the region. In addition to supporting the Singapore government’s AI strategy, this will empower enterprises, regional customers and startups with advanced AI capabilities.
