Master Group’s Indus Cloud , Pakistan’s First AI-Ready, Renewable-Powered Enterprise Cloud, today announced the launch of the country’s first Cisco AI GPU Cluster powered by the latest NVIDIA H200 Tensor Core GPUs , making brand-new NVIDIA H200 GPUs available on Pakistani soil for the very first time .
This milestone marks a significant step in super charging Pakistan’s AI ecosystem by providing researchers, enterprises, startups, universities and government organizations with access to world-class accelerated computing infrastructure—without the latency, compliance and data sovereignty challenges of relying solely on overseas cloud providers.
The Cisco AI infrastructure, integrated with NVIDIA H200 GPUs, is purpose-built to support demanding AI workloads including large language models (LLMs), generative AI, AI training and fine-tuning, high-performance inference, computer vision and advanced analytics.
Hosted within Indus Cloud’s purpose-built AI-ready infrastructure, the platform delivers enterprise-grade performance, scalability, security and reliability while enabling organisations to build and deploy AI solutions from within Pakistan.
“Artificial Intelligence will define the next era of economic growth, industrial competitiveness and national innovation. As Master Group, we are building the infrastructure Pakistan needed someone to build. We must build the digital infrastructure necessary to participate in this transformation—not simply consume it. The launch of Pakistan’s first Cisco AI GPU Cluster powered by NVIDIA H200 GPUs is an important milestone towards creating sovereign AI capability and empowering our innovators, enterprises and public sector with world-class computing resources,” expressed Master Group of Industries Managing Director Shahzad Malik.
Indus Cloud Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Rumman Dar noted, “This is more than the launch of new infrastructure; it is the foundation for Pakistan’s AI future. By bringing the latest NVIDIA H200 GPUs into the country, Indus Cloud is eliminating a major barrier for organisations seeking access to advanced AI compute. Our mission is to make enterprise-grade AI infrastructure accessible, scalable and locally available so Pakistan’s brightest minds can innovate faster while keeping their data and workloads within the country.”
Cisco’s AI-ready infrastructure provides the networking, management and operational capabilities required for next-generation AI environments, delivering the high-performance connectivity needed to maximise GPU utilisation and support large-scale AI deployments.
“Cisco is proud to collaborate with Indus Cloud in bringing cutting-edge AI infrastructure to Pakistan. As organisations accelerate their AI adoption, resilient, secure and high-performance infrastructure becomes critical. This deployment demonstrates how Cisco’s AI-ready infrastructure, combined with NVIDIA’s industry-leading GPUs, can help build the digital foundation needed to drive innovation and unlock new opportunities across Pakistan,” said Cisco Pakistan Country Manager Kashif ul Haq.
The launch reinforces Indus Cloud’s vision of powering Pakistan’s sovereign AI infrastructure and supporting the country’s rapidly accerlerating AI ecosystem. By making cutting-edge GPU computing available locally, Indus Cloud aims to accelerate AI research, enable enterprise innovation, support digital transformation initiatives and position Pakistan as an emerging AI hub in the region.
