Visionbay.ai and IBM collaborate to deliver a trusted, scalable, full-stack AI platform across the region

Singapore, July 21, 2026 – Today IBM (NYSE: IBM) and Visionbay.ai (“Visionbay”) – backed by Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn) — announced a collaboration to develop an AI platform and expand Visionbay’s AI App Store for enterprises and regulated industries across Asia Pacific.

Built on Visionbay’s AI infrastructure and cloud operations, Red Hat OpenShift will provide the hybrid cloud foundation for managing AI workloads and IBM’s watsonx AI portfolio will support AI development and governance capabilities. Together, the companies will provide an integrated AI platform that supports the full AI lifecycle — including model development, fine-tuning, deployment and AI services. By delivering a repeatable, full-stack architecture for enterprise deployment, the platform can help organizations move AI workloads from experimentation into production with greater speed, efficiency, and consistency with built-in enterprise governance.

These complementary capabilities can be accessed through Visionbay’s AI App Store, which will offer ready-to-use AI agents and AI applications tailored for businesses, enabling organizations to discover, deploy and govern AI securely while maintaining three critical layers:

＊Data Residency – keeping data, models and intellectual property within defined jurisdictions and customer-controlled environments.

＊Operational Control – enabling localized operation, management and optimization of critical AI infrastructure.

＊Governance and Compliance – adhere to regulatory requirements, security standards and auditability required by governments and regulated industries.

Through a Build-Operate-Localize model, IBM and Visionbay will help governments and regulated industries establish the operational foundation needed to scale AI services securely and reliably across environments — enabling local ownership of critical infrastructure, accelerating enterprise adoption, developing AI talent, and creating economic opportunities.

The collaboration marks an important milestone in Visionbay's strategy to expand beyond AI infrastructure by growing its AI App Store and software ecosystem, enabling customers to access enterprise AI solutions through a unified commercial platform. It will begin with deployments in Taiwan and expand across Asia Pacific, supporting industries including governments, financial services institutions, telecommunications providers and other regulated sectors.

“IBM and Visionbay.ai will help nations establish AI as a new digital industry — enabling local ownership of critical infrastructure, accelerating enterprise adoption, developing AI talent, and creating economic opportunities across the ecosystem. Our Build-Operate-Localize model represents the next evolution of AI infrastructure. Together with IBM, we are creating the foundation for trusted AI adoption across Asia,” said Neo Yao, CEO, Visionbay.ai.

“The AI era is driving the need for a new kind of enterprise infrastructure, and this collaboration will help enterprises and regulated industries unlock their full potential with open, flexible, and secure AI solutions to thrive in a rapidly changing world,” said Hans Dekkers, GM, IBM Asia Pacific. “Through combining Visionbay’s AI infrastructure with IBM’s enterprise AI, hybrid cloud and technology expertise, we are helping clients across Asia Pacific accelerate AI transformation with security, control and consistency.”

This collaboration also strengthens Visionbay's software ecosystem, enabling customers to access trusted enterprise AI applications alongside AI infrastructure through a single platform. The integrated platform supports flexible consumption models across the AI value chain — from GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) providing access to accelerated computing resources, AI Platform-as-a-Service (AI PaaS) enabling model development, deployment and governance, to AI-as-a-Service (AIaaS) delivering industry-specific AI solutions for intelligent customer engagement, risk management, operational automation and productivity transformation.
