SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - 29TH SEPTEMBER 2026

Firmus and Meta today announced strategic AI infrastructure agreements for GPU compute capacity at Firmus AI factories in Southeast Asia built on NVIDIA’s full-stack DSX platform. The agreements include contracted capacity and additional capacity expansion options. This will support Meta’s AI research, model development and training.

As an existing Firmus customer in Australia, Meta is already using NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 systems at Firmus’ Melbourne AI factory, the largest deployment of NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra systems in the Southern Hemisphere.

Firmus designs, manufactures and operates AI factories to support large-scale AI workloads. Its engineering brings together computing, cooling and power systems with the goal of delivering more compute from each watt of energy.

Its HyperCube platform, co-designed with NVIDIA, combines liquid cooling, power and mechanical systems into factory-built modules that can be produced at scale and deployed across the region. The latest generation supports NVIDIA GB300 and Vera Rubin NVL72 systems and Spectrum-X networking.

By designing computing, networking, cooling and power systems together, Firmus aims to deploy AI factories faster and use energy more efficiently.

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.

Tim Rosenfield, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Firmus, said:

“We’re building for partners at the forefront of AI, whose models demand exceptional performance and who want to get the most compute from every watt of energy. That’s the engineering challenge Firmus was founded to solve.

“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.”
