Intellistake Scales Enterprise AI with Dedicated, Sovereign AI Data-Center Partnership with Singularity Compute

Published

on

Key Highlights:

Intellistake has entered into a strategic partnership services agreement with Singularity Compute, the independent AI infrastructure arm of SingularityNET, for dedicated, ultra-high-performance physical sovereign AI compute capacity, significantly expanding the infrastructure supporting the Company’s growing line of innovative AI solutions.

Hosted in Sweden by a Swiss-incorporated provider, providing European data sovereignty outside the jurisdictional reach of the U.S. CLOUD Act, and powered by 100% renewable energy.

The engagement is intended to support the development, deployment and continued expansion of Intellistake’s enterprise AI products and services.

SingularityNET is a leading organization in artificial general intelligence (“AGI”) research and a founding member of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (“ASI”), the network on which Intellistake also operates validator infrastructure.

Existing leadership alignment includes Singularity Compute CEO Joe Honan on Intellistake’s Advisory Board, and Dr. Ben Goertzel, founder of SingularityNET and widely recognized as the father of AGI, as Special Advisor to Intellistake’s CEO.

VANCOUVER, BC, April 29, 2026 /CNW/ – Intellistake Technologies Corp. (CSE: ISTK) (OTCQB: ISTKF) (FSE: E41) (“Intellistake” or the “Company”), today announced that it has entered into a strategic partnership services agreement (the “Agreement”) dated May 28, 2026 with Singularity Compute for dedicated, ultra-high-performance sovereign AI compute capacity, significantly expanding the infrastructure underpinning the Company’s growing line of innovative AI solutions.

Singularity Compute is the independent, for-profit AI infrastructure arm of SingularityNET, one of the most established organizations in AGI research and a founding member of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance, a global alliance of AI organizations focused on the development of beneficial AGI. The platform is built and operated by the experts behind SingularityNET, bringing technical depth in AI infrastructure that long predates the current AI cycle. Intellistake already operates validator infrastructure on the ASI / FET network.

Under the Agreement, Intellistake has secured physical ultra-high-performance sovereign AI compute resources, reserved exclusively for the Company’s use, significantly expanding dedicated infrastructure available to support its growing line of innovative AI solutions. The Agreement is structured as a service order under a Master Services Agreement, with an initial term of twelve (12) months.

Why Singularity Compute

Singularity Compute is purpose-built for AI workloads, rather than a general-purpose cloud retrofitted for them. Its full-stack platform unifies enterprise-grade GPU cloud, AI model inference and AI cloud services into a single integrated offering, running on a dedicated NVIDIA GPU cluster engineered for AI from the ground up. A key differentiator is its use of neuro-symbolic reasoning, which combines neural networks with structured knowledge systems and is designed to improve the accuracy and traceability of AI outputs in environments where reliability is critical, such as finance, healthcare and enterprise operations.

Dedicated infrastructure, as opposed to shared cloud capacity, is designed to provide the predictable performance and throughput that enterprise AI workloads require.

The infrastructure also offers two characteristics that are increasingly relevant for enterprise AI buyers:

The first is European data sovereignty: the compute is hosted in Sweden and operated by a Swiss-incorporated provider, placing both the data and the operating entity outside the jurisdictional reach of the U.S. CLOUD Act and within the European data protection framework.The second is sustainability: the Swedish data center operates on 100% renewable energy, supporting the environmental and disclosure standards that institutional customers and investors increasingly expect.

The Agreement is also intended to ensure Intellistake has the dedicated capacity required to support its expanding enterprise AI activities as the Company continues to develop and deploy products and services for enterprise customers.

The Agreement deepens established alignment between the two organizations. Singularity Compute CEO Joe Honan serves on Intellistake’s Advisory Board, and Dr. Ben Goertzel, founder of SingularityNET and widely recognized as the father of AGI,1 acts as Special Advisor to Intellistake’s CEO.

Jason Dussault, Chief Executive Officer of Intellistake, commented:

“I believe there is a clear move towards decentralization, and this milestone sits within that broader shift in how AI infrastructure is being built and deployed. At its core, decentralization gives users more control over their data and assets, rather than relying on centralized systems where risk is concentrated and intermediaries sit between the user and the underlying infrastructure.

For the enterprise solutions we are developing, our clients rely on highly sensitive datasets that have often been built over many years. In centralized environments, that concentration of information increases risk. Having access to sovereign, dedicated infrastructure allows us to introduce an additional layer of protection around that data, which is becoming increasingly important as these systems move into real world use.

Singularity Compute brings together purpose-built AI infrastructure, sovereign data positioning and a team of experts with deep experience in this space. As we continue to scale our enterprise AI capabilities, access to reliable, dedicated compute is a key part of that process, and this agreement is an important step forward for us.”

Joe Honan, CEO of Singularity Compute commented:

“Singularity Compute was built to serve serious enterprise AI workloads. Our infrastructure is purpose-built, sovereign and sustainable. We are thrilled to welcome Intellistake as a customer and strategic partner building next-generation enterprise AI solutions. Their commitment to building AI products on dedicated, sovereign infrastructure aligns directly with what our platform is designed to deliver, and we look forward to supporting the next phase of their growth.”
