The AI‑focused cloud provider announced a $668 million Series B round led by ARCHIV, with participation from NVIDIA, to expand its GPU capacity across North America and key Asian markets.

GMI Cloud, the AI‑focused cloud provider, announced a $668 million Series B financing round led by ARCHIV, with participation from NVIDIA, to accelerate the expansion of its GPU infrastructure across the United States, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

Funding round details

The $668 million round marks the largest single investment in GMI Cloud to date and is intended to fund the deployment of additional GPU‑powered servers, data center construction, and edge‑computing capabilities in target regions.

ARCHIV, a venture firm specializing in deep‑tech investments, led the round, while NVIDIA contributed as a strategic investor, reflecting the chipmaker’s interest in bolstering the ecosystem for its GPUs.

Geographic expansion strategy

GMI Cloud plans to roll out new data centers in key U.S. markets, including California and Texas, to meet rising demand from enterprise AI workloads.

In Asia, the company will increase capacity in Taiwan, leveraging the island’s established semiconductor supply chain, and will launch edge sites in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia to serve regional customers with low‑latency AI services.

Implications for the AI cloud market

The infusion of capital positions GMI Cloud to compete more directly with larger hyperscale providers by offering specialized GPU instances optimized for generative AI, machine learning training, and inference workloads.

Industry analysts expect the added capacity to help narrow the supply gap for high‑performance AI compute, which has been a bottleneck for startups and enterprises seeking to scale their models.

  • Accelerated deployment of GPU‑dense servers
  • Expansion of edge computing nodes in Southeast Asia
  • Strategic partnership with NVIDIA for hardware and software integration
  • Enhanced support for generative AI workloads

GMI Cloud’s leadership emphasized that the funding will also support research collaborations with universities and AI research labs to foster innovation on its platform.

We are thrilled to partner with ARCHIV and NVIDIA to accelerate our mission of delivering world‑class AI infrastructure globally, said CEO Lin Wei of GMI Cloud.

The company aims to double its GPU capacity by the end of 2027, aligning with projected growth in AI model training and inference demand across both North American and Asian markets.
