Türkiye is witnessing a historical turning point in the world of technology. NGN, our country’s leading name in data center and cloud technologies, and Cerebrum Tech, which draws attention with its domestic artificial intelligence vision, joined forces and started the “AI Compute” era.

At the launch ceremony held with the participation of Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz, a strategic partnership in which Turkey will be able to process its data within its own borders with its own artificial intelligence infrastructure was officially announced. This cooperation, beyond just providing a technological infrastructure, is considered to be one of the most concrete steps taken to ensure Turkey’s data sovereignty and to rise to the position of a “producing country” in the global technology market.

• NGN and Cerebrum Tech signed a strategic collaboration to create an advanced artificial intelligence platform running on native cloud infrastructure.

• Thanks to the cooperation, institutions will be able to access secure and scalable artificial intelligence solutions via local infrastructure without taking their data abroad.

• Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz stated that the project will make a critical contribution to Turkey’s digital transformation process and high value-added technology production.

Strategic Fortress for Data Independence: Star of Bosphorus

The operation center of this giant collaboration is NGN’s Star of Bosphorus Data Center, which is called Turkey’s “Digital Castle”. This center, which has the Uptime Institute Tier III design and facility certificate, is ready to provide the huge processing power needed by artificial intelligence with its 16 MW total electrical power and 24 thousand square meters of closed area.

The need for high-capacity data computing, which is required for training and analyzing artificial intelligence models, is now met through this center without being dependent on external sources. While Star of Bosphorus draws attention with its operator-independent structure in Turkey, it will feature Cerebrum Tech’s artificial intelligence analysis, decision support systems and automation capabilities. In this way, many organizations, from public institutions to the private sector, have the opportunity to process even their most sensitive data in complete security.

Native Intelligence on Native Cloud: Data Doesn’t Go Abroad

Data security, one of the biggest topics of discussion today, is resolved with this cooperation. Many companies and institutions have legal and security concerns about moving their data across borders when using global cloud providers. NGN and Cerebrum Tech partnership guarantees that this data remains entirely on Turkish soil.

While NGN Chairman of the Board of Directors İnanç Erol emphasizes that data independence has become an existential priority for countries, he states that Turkey will be a power that not only produces data but also processes that data with its own “intelligence”. This structure aims to provide a competitive advantage by reducing decision-making processes to milliseconds, especially in strategic sectors such as finance, e-commerce and public.

Türkiye’s Signature in Global Competition

Cerebrum Tech Founder Dr. As R. Erdem Erkul stated, artificial intelligence is now the most basic condition of global competition rather than a choice. Türkiye’s geopolitical location and technological know-how make it necessary for it to take an active role in the field in the age of artificial intelligence.

Solutions offered with this collaboration; It will be used in a wide range of areas such as healthcare, retail, industry and smart urbanism. Providing an ethical and safe model, compatible with European Union regulations, with domestic resources will also increase Turkey’s export capacity in this field. When Cerebrum Tech’s global network extending from Silicon Valley to London and NGN’s solid infrastructure are combined, Türkiye is aimed to become a technology exporting center.

A New Page in Digital Transformation

As Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz underlined, the meeting of domestic data center infrastructure and high artificial intelligence capacity in the same strategic framework reinforces Turkey’s digital sovereignty. In the world of the future, computing power is seen as the new oil. NGN and Cerebrum Tech are opening a new page in Turkey’s digital transformation journey by nationalizing this power. Türkiye’s data now gains value with domestic artificial intelligence running on the local cloud.
