TELUS and L-SPARK have partnered to open Canada's first Sovereign AI Factory, granting startups access to the country's most powerful supercomputer. This initiative addresses the challenge of high-performance computing for AI development without requiring businesses to relocate or use foreign platforms.
It aims to support organizations in regulated sectors, ensuring data residency under Canadian jurisdiction. TELUS plans to further expand access through more partnerships with innovation hubs across Canada.
