National – Proximal Cloud, an Indian technology firm focused on private AI infrastructure, today announced a strategic collaboration with NxtGen, a leading provider of cloud and data centre services, to enable secure, compliant, and scalable AI deployments within private and regulated environments.
Through this partnership, NxtGen will support Proximal Cloud’s enterprise AI platform. Proximal’s flagship Enterprise Deep Research platform is designed to help organisations work with data sprawl across complex enterprise systems and build their intelligence layer for private data by enabling deployment readiness across government and regulated sectors, ensuring organisations can adopt advanced AI capabilities while adhering to evolving regulatory and security requirements.
Speaking on the announcement, Renu Raman, Founder and CEO of Proximal Cloud, said, “Bringing AI to where data resides is central to enabling secure and scalable adoption. Our collaboration with NxtGen allows organisations to deploy advanced AI capabilities within environments that meet stringent regulatory and operational requirements, while maintaining full control over their data.”
The collaboration is designed to help organisations address key challenges around compliance, data sovereignty, and operational control. By combining Proximal Cloud’s “data-adjacent AI” approach with NxtGen’s infrastructure capabilities, enterprises and institutions will be able to deploy AI systems within locally governed environments, ensuring security, reliability, and alignment with regulatory mandates.
“For government bodies and regulated enterprises, Sovereign AI is now a baseline requirement. NxtGen has spent years building the infrastructure, compliance depth, and operational frameworks that make this a reality for Indian organisations rather than a roadmap item. Our collaboration with Proximal Cloud puts that foundation to work, giving institutions in the most accountability-driven sectors the ability to deploy advanced AI capabilities on Indian soil, under Indian control, without compromise,” said A S Rajgopal, MD & CEO, NxtGen.
