The funding round was led by Greenoaks, with participation from RTP Global and Unicorn India Ventures, the firm said in a press release on Thursday. The company also announced its rebranding from Kluisz to Nava and confirmed plans to establish Singapore as its regional headquarters, aiming to strengthen its presence in key Asia-Pacific markets and access global talent. Nava will utilize the new funding to develop its AI compute platform, expand operations across the region, and recruit senior leadership and technical talent in areas such as AI data center design, GPU engineering, and operations. Founded in 2025 by Abhinav Sinha, Vamshidhar Reddy, and Abhijeet Singh, Nava, formerly Kuisz, is building a cloud platform designed specifically for AI workloads. Its approach integrates AI-optimized data centers, GPU compute infrastructure, and software layers for orchestration and deployment. Demand for such infrastructure is rising rapidly. According to KPMG, data center capacity in Southeast Asia will need to triple by 2030 to meet increasing AI-related demand, with similar gaps emerging in India. Much of the existing infrastructure in the region is not designed for AI-specific workloads. Nava previously raised $9.6 million in seed funding led by RTP Global, with backing from Unicorn India Ventures, Blume Founders Fund, and Climber Capital. > Taiwan, mainland China, Vietnam offer most affordable data center construction costs in Asia-Pacific ### Related Stocks - [NAVA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NAVA.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Is AI a bubble?
