Freedom Holding Corp. is developing a $2bn AI hub in Kazakhstan under an agreement with the government. Its first GPU cluster is planned to open to businesses and developers as a public cloud in 2027.
Freedom Holding Corp. signed the agreement with Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development in November 2025. The site is planned with 100MW of available power, with Freedom acting as the main financing and delivery partner and future operator.
The hub will support training AI models, processing large volumes of data and providing AI services to businesses and government. A Freedom Cloud data centre is already under construction near Almaty, and its existing customer base exceeds 3,400 businesses and public-sector organisations.
Freedom chief executive Timur Turlov says demand is already twice the hub’s planned first-stage capacity. The company says major prospective customers are willing to lease capacity for five years, but its statement does not name a chip supplier. For builders considering the service, the public GPU cloud remains a planned 2027 offering rather than capacity available today.
A government agreement and a designated financing and operating partner give Kazakhstan’s AI infrastructure plans a concrete delivery structure.
Public GPU access could give businesses and developers another option for training AI models and running data-heavy services.
Usable capacity remains unproven: the cloud launch is still planned, the chip supplier is unnamed and customer interest is described as prospective.

Nous has raised $17 million to expand its household AI agent beyond the UK. The service makes decisions and carries out tasks for authorised users, rather than simply recommending cheaper deals.
