Presight and Samruk-Kazyna sign agreement with Kazakhstans Ministry of Digital Development to build an advanced AI supercomputer in Kazakhstan. In a landmark initiative, Kazakhstan's Ministry of Digital Development, in information collaboration with Presight and Samruk-Kazyna has announced the development of a AI supercomputer and data center cluster in Kazakhstan. This initiative marks the first project under the newly established Samruk-Kazyna-Presight joint venture, aiming to lay the foundation for the country's nationalAI digital infrastructure.

The agreement, announced at the World Governments Summit in the presence of H.E. Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei, UAE's Minister of Energy & Infrastructure, follows a Memorandum of Understanding signed with the UAE Ministry of Investments. The project will be executed in two phases: the initial phase will enhance computing power within the existing facilities of the Ministry of Digitalization and the development of a Kazakh LLM, and the subsequent phase will involve constructing a new data center and supercomputer cluster running on green energy. This endeavor aligns with the visions set forth during the joint nations leadership meeting at the COP28 conference in Dubai, embodying the commitment between Kazakhstan and the UAE to introduce a world-class supercomputer cluster to Central Asia.

Samruk-Kazyna is recognized as a strategic partner in this project, highlighting the concerted efforts towards achieving technological advancement and economic growth through AI and digital transformation.
