Rafay Systems has partnered with AI Green Data Centers (AI-GDC) to build sovereign AI infrastructure across Mexico and wider Latin America – targeting universities, enterprises and public sector organisations seeking regional AI services.
The partnership will combine Rafay’s infrastructure orchestration platform with AI-GDC’s sovereign AI cloud environment, enabling customers to access self-service, token-metered AI applications and high-performance computing capabilities within regional borders. AI-GDC said the initiative moves beyond traditional GPU-as-a-service models by delivering a full-stack AI platform ranging from bare metal infrastructure to AI models and application marketplaces.
AI-GDC is developing an NVIDIA-aligned AI Factory in northern Mexico designed to support the intensive power and cooling demands of next-generation GPUs. Construction of its flagship green data centre campus in Monterrey is scheduled to begin this year, with plans to scale capacity to 100 MW by 2030.
The company said digital sovereignty and sustainability are central to its strategy, with infrastructure designed to keep Mexican and Latin American data within the region while using renewable energy and water-efficient cooling technologies.
Haseeb Budhani, CEO and co-founder, Rafay Systems, said Latin America is becoming a major frontier for AI infrastructure investment. Franz Berchelmann, CEO, AI-GDC, said that the partnership would help deliver secure, enterprise-grade sovereign AI services across the region.
According to IDC, global AI infrastructure spending is expected to reach US$758 billion by 2029, while Mexico’s AI data centre market is forecast to expand at a 24.55% compound annual growth rate through 2031, reflecting demand for sovereign capacity and services.
