Hive Digital’s BUZZ HPC teams with Bell to develop one of Canada’s largest sovereign AI ecosystems

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Hive Digital Technologies subsidiary BUZZ HPC’s President and COO Craig Tavares joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news of a groundbreaking preferred partnership with Bell Canada, the nation’s largest telecommunications provider. Signed on August 3, the agreement will see BUZZ HPC deliver one of Canada’s largest sovereign AI ecosystems through Bell AI Fabric. BUZZ HPC will supply Bell’s government and enterprise customers with access to NVIDIA’s most advanced GPU clusters—including Ampere, Hopper, and Blackwell—scalable over NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking. By combining BUZZ HPC’s large-scale accelerated computing infrastructure—purpose-built for AI, machine learning, and scientific computing—with Bell AI Fabric’s national fibre network, advanced data centres, and partner ecosystem, the partnership creates a powerful foundation for AI development in Canada. The integrated platform will enable a wide range of use cases, from building foundational AI models to fine-tuning existing ones, all hosted in secure Canadian-owned facilities that meet stringent data residency and cybersecurity requirements. The collaboration ensures true nationwide reach by expanding GPU infrastructure across multiple provinces. The first phase—a 5 MW deployment in Manitoba—will launch later this year, followed by additional deployments in other Bell AI Fabric data centres. These investments are designed to advance Canadian innovation, support national objectives, and provide domestic enterprises with world-class AI computing power. Tavares emphasized that the initiative will give Canadian innovators unparalleled access to high-performance NVIDIA accelerated computing resources, ensuring a competitive advantage in the rapidly evolving global AI landscape. #proactiveinvestors #hivedigitaltechnologieslet #tsxv #hive #nasdaq #hive #CryptoMining #GreenEnergy #BuzzHPC #AIInfrastructure #NvidiaH200 #QuebecDataCenter #SustainableTech #GPUCluster #TorontoTech #AITraining #HiveDigital #LiquidCooling #Supercomputing #GreenEnergyAI #Exahash #HighPerformanceComputing
