FuriosaAI announced on the 11th that it has established a local subsidiary in Singapore. The Singapore entity will serve as a hub for the Asia-Pacific region.
The move comes as the company expands global commercial deployments of infrastructure based on its second-generation AI inference accelerator, RNGD. FuriosaAI said the subsidiary is intended to strengthen cooperation with local customers and partners.
Going forward, FuriosaAI plans to use Singapore as a base to expand cooperation across the Asia-Pacific region, including Southeast Asia. It also plans to promote broader adoption of large-scale AI inference infrastructure.
FuriosaAI currently operates overseas hubs in Silicon Valley in the United States and Lisbon, Portugal, with its Seoul headquarters at the center. The Singapore hub will be led by Addison Chi, vice president of APAC sales at FuriosaAI, and the company plans to hire local staff and strengthen technical support capabilities to help with everything from initial technical validation to commercial environment deployment.
RNGD is an AI accelerator for data centers. It is designed for high-performance, high-efficiency inference across a range of workloads, including large language models (LLMs) and multimodal models. The NXT RNGD server is configured with 8 RNGD cards and operates at around 3 kW. It can also be deployed in existing data centers with air cooling.
FuriosaAI will begin mass production of RNGD in January 2026. RNGD is already being used in commercial services by customers in South Korea and overseas, including Samsung SDS and LG AI Research.
FuriosaAI is expanding its business into global markets including Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the United States, with expanding cooperation with customers and partners as a key business direction. Baek Jun-ho, CEO of FuriosaAI, said that AI adoption is active in the Asia-Pacific region despite data center power and infrastructure constraints, and that the region is emerging as a key area in the global AI infrastructure market. He added that the company plans to use its Singapore hub to support cooperation with regional customers and partners, and to provide support from technical validation of RNGD through commercial deployment.
