It’s expected to drive the adoption of advanced AI applications across sectors like finance, mining, aviation, oil and gas, and construction.
We are building a next-generation platform that will serve as the backbone of Kazakhstan’s digital sovereignty. This partnership with NVIDIA will equip the public and private sectors with tools to create AI-driven solutions, develop local expertise, and foster national innovation,said Bagdat Musin, Chairman of the Board at Kazakhtelecom.
