The collaboration brings together Bell AI Fabric's data centre and connectivity foundation, Cohere's secure enterprise-grade AI solutions and large language model capabilities, and BUZZ HPC's scalable accelerated computing infrastructure, powered by NVIDIA's DSX AI factory platform and built on hardware manufactured in Canada by Hypertec.

Together, the four companies will build the conditions needed to conduct the critical R&D needed for AI models – using Canadian infrastructure, with Canadian partners – reinforcing Canada's digital sovereignty and economic resilience.

Today's announcement reflects the growing collaboration among Canadian technology leaders since the launch of Bell AI Fabric and the Canadian Sovereign AI Alliance. As organizations move from AI experimentation to large-scale deployment, demand is increasing for high-performance infrastructure that enables Canadian AI – supporting greater control over data, performance and security, and reinforcing the importance of Canadian-based AI capabilities.

Under the agreement, which builds on previously announced partnerships, Bell will provide data centre capacity and connectivity services from its Merritt, British Columbia facility, purpose-built for advanced AI workloads. BUZZ HPC will deliver the AI-native cloud layer using Hypertec's Canadian-built hardware cluster and NVIDIA accelerated computing to support production-grade AI workloads, while Cohere will use the platform to operate its foundation models and support secure enterprise-grade AI solutions for government and enterprise customers.

The announcement further reinforces Bell AI Fabric's role in supporting sovereign AI – bringing together connectivity, data centres, compute, professional services and cybersecurity to create a platform for Canadian organizations and global innovators operating in Canada.

As demand for AI continues to grow, Bell AI Fabric, Cohere, Hypertec and BUZZ HPC will support customers seeking a high-performance Canadian AI stack with strong economics for providers and enterprises.
