Global AI and HUMAIN Partnership
Global AI, a prominent player in sovereign AI infrastructure and an NVIDIA Cloud Partner, has joined forces with HUMAIN, a company known for delivering full-stack artificial intelligence solutions. This strategic alliance aims to establish large-scale AI data centers across the United States, emphasizing the need for advanced computing capabilities to harness next-generation AI workloads.
The two companies are embarking on the development of one of the most sophisticated AI data center campuses in the U.S. This facility is designed to support a range of applications from national-scale model training to secure, high-throughput inference and deployment of sovereign cloud solutions. The off-premises, air-gapped architecture employed by Global AI creates a fully isolated and ultra-secure environment that caters to enterprises, government sectors, utilities, and innovators working on frontier models, ensuring they maintain maximum control over their data.
At the core of this ambitious project is NVIDIA's AI infrastructure, which includes advanced liquid-cooled NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems and NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking. These technologies are pivotal for delivering the high performance, bandwidth, and reliability essential for mission-critical AI development.
Sami Issa, Co-Founder and CEO of Global AI, highlighted the significance of this partnership, stating, "Sovereign AI is rapidly becoming the defining infrastructure of the next technological era. We've redefined the construction of advanced compute facilities with liquid-cooled clusters and air-gapped architectures. Partnering with HUMAIN enables us to create AI systems that can be fully trusted, operated, and controlled within various jurisdictions. This is the bedrock for technological independence in the coming decade."
Tareq Amin, CEO of HUMAIN, echoed this sentiment, noting that the collaboration underscores the increasing importance of AI in shaping future technologies. He remarked, "Our partnership with Global AI guarantees that HUMAIN's AI systems are built upon a reliable U.S.-based infrastructure designed for large-scale innovation."
Founded in 2024 by experienced technology executives, Global AI specializes in sovereign AI solutions through state-of-the-art liquid-cooled infrastructure. The company is steered by industry veterans, including Dr. John E. Kelly III, who has a rich history in semiconductor research, supercomputing, and AI, and Sami Issa, who previously co-founded and led W3BCLOUD, a GPU cloud platform.
Global AI currently operates a purpose-built AI data center in New York, outfitted with NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 clusters tailored for high-performance compute tasks. They are also rolling out the state’s largest installation of NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems, reinforcing their commitment to cutting-edge technology with the first shipment already installed. The facility boasts advanced liquid-cooling solutions, a rarity as they are found in only 5% of data centers worldwide, maximizing power density, operational efficiency, and reliability for AI training and deployment initiatives.
