VEON's Beeline Kazakhstan Breaks Ground for Hyper Cloud Data Center to Offer Sovereign Enterprise, AI and Digital Services Dubai and Almaty, December 8, 2025 - VEON Ltd. (Nasdaq: VEON), a global digital operator ( VEON ), today announced that Beeline Kazakhstan has begun construction of the new Hyper Cloud data center in Almaty-an advanced Tier III-certified facility designed to anchor Kazakhstan's sovereign cloud, AI compute, and enterprise digital services ecosystem.
The investment positions Kazakhstan for the next phase of digital growth by providing domestic, secure, and scalable compute capacity for artificial intelligence, blockchain solutions, and next-generation telecom services. The Hyper Cloud data center being built by Beeline Kazakhstan will be a sovereign cloud platform that ensures all customer data stays within Kazakhstan, meeting national security and data-sovereignty requirements. The platform will provide small- and medium-sized enterprises with a wide range of modern services, including IaaS, PaaS, BaaS, GPU-as-a-Service, and Security-as-a-Service, enabling businesses to scale more rapidly, improve operational efficiency, and implement innovations securely.
Kazakhstan's IT sector continues to expand significantly, with more than 18,000 companies now operating, a 16% increase in three years. Cloud capacity is essential for the digital future of Kazakhstan, explains Evgeniy Nastradin, CEO of Beeline Kazakhstan. Through the new Hyper Cloud service facility, we will be delivering state of the art infrastructure for the country's enterprise and AI needs. We will securely store and process the data within the country and develop the foundation for AI-powered, modern digital services. This investment will enhance Kazakhstan's potential as a digital hub for the region.
Targeted to go live by the end of 2026, the Tier III Hyper Cloud facility will provide full-service redundancy within Beeline Kazakhstan's own infrastructure, significantly strengthening the reliability, security, and sovereignty of cloud services for enterprises, developers, and public-sector organizations.
