Firebird has launched what it called the largest Nvidia DSX AI factory in its region in Hrazdan, Armenia, marking the operational debut of an AI infrastructure platform that the company plans to expand across emerging markets. The company said Nvidia intends to invest in Firebird, adding to an earlier investment by CoreWeave, as Firebird builds out capacity in Armenia, Kazakhstan and additional frontier markets. In Armenia, Firebird outlined a three-phase expansion that targets more than 70,000 Nvidia Rubin and Blackwell GPUs by the end of 2027 and 300 megawatts of AI infrastructure capacity, a scale the company said would place the project among Europe’s largest AI infrastructure platforms. The launch event included remarks from Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, NVIDIA Founder and CEO Jensen Huang, NVIDIA Vice President of Physical AI Simulation Rev Lebaredian, Chargé d'Affaires ad interim, U.S. Embassy in Armenia David Allen, and Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan Zhaslan Madiyev. Firebird said its broader pipeline is expected to reach 2 gigawatts by the end of 2028 across Armenia, Kazakhstan and other markets under development. In Kazakhstan, the company said it has secured 125 megawatts of AI infrastructure capacity at Data Center Valley with support from the Government of Kazakhstan and export authorization from the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security. The Armenia facility uses the Nvidia DSX AI Factory reference design and Nvidia Spectrum-X Ethernet networking, which Firebird said can support up to 40% more GPUs within the same footprint. Firebird also named Perplexity as one of its first customers for the new infrastructure.
