Australia’s Firmus has signed AI infrastructure agreements with Facebook parent Meta Platforms to provide graphics processing unit (GPU) compute capacity at its data-center facilities in Southeast Asia. The contracted capacity and expansion options will use Nvidia’s full-stack DSX platform to support Meta’s AI research, model development and training. Financial terms were not disclosed. The agreements build on Meta’s deployment of Nvidia GB300 NVL72 systems at Firmus’ Melbourne data center, described as the largest deployment of Blackwell Ultra systems in the Southern Hemisphere. Firmus designs, manufactures and operates AI factories, or facilities built for large-scale AI workloads. The company is preparing a $5 billion initial public offering to fund growth in AI projects, potentially making it Australia’s second-largest IPO.
