Cybersecurity and artificial intelligence company VCI Global Limited (VCIG) announced on Friday that its Enterprise AI GPU Lounge, powered by NVIDIA’s Blackwell technology, has reached turnkey readiness and is close to its operational phase.

The company said that the new lounge, located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, is a co-working data center for enterprise AI, providing access to the Blackwell computing infrastructure for multinational corporations, regulated enterprises, and government entities, without needing upfront capital investment.

VCI Global’s facility is expected to begin enterprise workloads by late January 2026.

Shares of VCIG closed over 41% higher on Friday but lost over 7% in after-market hours.

Subscription-Based Enterprise AI

VCI Global’s new AI GPU will offer a subscription-based, usage-driven model, allowing enterprises to scale compute resources according to actual workload demand.

The facility will be powered by NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs and managed by its subsidiary V Gallant’s Intelli-X platform, the company said.

The new facility will also support testing, orchestration, and command-and-control functions for robotics, autonomous systems, and drone technologies outlined in the company’s 2026 development roadmap.

“With the AI GPU Lounge entering operational readiness, we are introducing a scalable and capital-efficient platform that enables enterprises to deploy advanced AI capabilities without the traditional burden of infrastructure ownership. This marks an important step as we advance toward Physical AI and intelligent automation use cases,” said Dr. Chan Wai Mun, Chief Operating Officer of V Gallant.
