AI and cloud company MegaZone Cloud has been selected as a cloud infrastructure supplier for the 'Gyeonggi-do AI Company High-Performance Computing Support Project' promoted by Gyeonggi-do and the Next-Generation Convergence Technology Research Institute (NFT).
This project is a public project that provides high-performance computing resources free of charge for three months to AI startups, small and medium-sized enterprises, university startups, and youth enterprises in Gyeonggi Province. The goal is to promote AI technology development and enhance corporate competitiveness by supporting high-performance graphics processing units (GPUs) and neural network processing units (NPUs) such as NVIDIA H100, A100, V100, and H200, which small and medium-sized enterprises and startups have difficulty securing on their own, based on the cloud.
Through this supply contract, MegaZone Cloud will be in charge of the overall cloud infrastructure operation of the Gyeonggi-do AI enterprise high-performance computing support project. Accordingly, MegaZone Cloud participated in the opening ceremony and business briefing of the 'Gyeonggi K-AI Cloud Zone' hosted by Gyeonggi-do and the Korea Innovation Foundation and held at the MegaZone Industry-Academia-Research Center in Gwacheon on June 4, introducing the outline of the support project, support contents, etc. to demand companies, and sharing the services and use cases of major cloud companies.
The 'Gyeonggi K-AI Cloud Zone' is a dedicated space created by Megazone Cloud in the Gwacheon Megazone Industry-Academia-Research Center for this project. During the project period, companies in demand can compare and experience various cloud services, including high-performance computing resources such as GPUs and NPUs, and select and utilize the most appropriate service among major K-clouds such as Naver Cloud, NHN Cloud, KT Cloud, Samsung Cloud, and Kakao Cloud. Megazone Cloud's expert engineers will be on-site to provide companies in demand with 1:1 technical consulting on the introduction and utilization of cloud services.
For this project, MegaZone Cloud has formed a dedicated technology team for each K-Cloud CSP and will support the entire process from consulting to infrastructure construction, operation, and failure response in the form of an integrated managed service. Through this, it plans to actively support companies in need to introduce and operate cloud resources more stably and efficiently.
Gyeonggi Province AI Bureau Director Kim Ki-byeong said, “Providing high-performance computing resources to AI companies is like providing a ladder for practical growth,” adding, “We will spare no support so that innovative companies with potential can overcome the AI infrastructure gap, challenge the global stage, and lead the ecosystem.”
MegaZone Cloud CRO (Chief Revenue Officer) Hwang In-cheol said, “The goal of this project is to create an environment where AI companies can focus on technology development without the burden of infrastructure.” He added, “Beyond the successful completion of this project, we plan to contribute to the revitalization of the domestic cloud industry ecosystem by promoting expansion to other local governments and similar support projects based on the accumulated experience and achievements.”
