Cassava Technologies has made major progress in its pioneering rollout of Africa’s first network-based GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) platform, reinforcing its commitment to shaping the continent’s digital and AI-driven future.

The initiative positions the company, which is rooted in African heritage but operates globally, at the forefront of advanced computing innovation on the continent.

In Botswana, Cassava Technologies operates through Liquid Intelligent Technologies, which provides high-speed internet, cloud services, and cybersecurity solutions. This forms a strong backbone supporting Cassava’s AI and digital transformation agenda across the continent. As the first preferred NVIDIA Cloud Partner (NCP) in Africa, Cassava Technologies is deploying secure, high-performance data centre facilities in South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Egypt, and Morocco. These centres will anchor the GPUaaS offering, expanding access to powerful AI computing that has traditionally been out of reach for many African organisations. This milestone cements Cassava’s leadership in providing transformative digital infrastructure.
