BDx Data Centers, a China-based carrier-neutral operator, has partnered with Singapore’s Anyon Technologies to install Southeast Asia’s first hybrid quantum artificial-intelligence testbed at BDx’s SIN1 facility in Paya Lebar, Singapore, according to an announcement.
The companies signed a memorandum of understanding to formalise the collaboration, which will see Anyon’s superconducting quantum processing units integrated with conventional central and graphics processors already deployed at SIN1.
The combined stack is intended to help startups, enterprises and public agencies experiment with quantum-enhanced AI workloads such as optimisation, complex simulations and advanced data analytics.
BDx said the project supports Singapore’s Green 2030 and Smart Nation blueprints, noting that SIN1 already runs on an AI-powered digital twin that continuously tunes cooling and power distribution.
The facility has achieved a 20 per cent improvement in energy efficiency compared with traditional designs and complies with the city-state’s Green Data Centre Standards, according to the company.
The testbed will act as an AI Hub and Innovation Center for the region, giving early-stage firms and research teams access to dedicated high-performance infrastructure without substantial upfront investment.
By coupling quantum processors with BDx’s bank of NVIDIA GPUs, the partners aim to lower adoption barriers for sectors that handle data-intensive workloads, including finance, logistics and life sciences.
Beyond Singapore, BDx and Anyon plan to replicate the model in Indonesia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, creating a distributed network of quantum-enabled data centres that can share capacity and support cross-border research.
The expansion will tap BDx’s existing 18-facility footprint, which totals about 750 megawatts of IT power across Greater China and Southeast Asia.
BDx, backed by infrastructure investor I Squared Capital, positions itself as a cloud- and carrier-neutral platform for hyperscalers and enterprises seeking secure and sustainable colocation solutions.
Anyon was founded in Singapore to commercialise large-scale superconducting quantum computers and targets breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, chemical engineering and pharmaceutical discovery.
Industry analysts say hybrid quantum architectures are a pragmatic bridge until fully error-corrected quantum machines mature, allowing organisations to build skills and test algorithms that could deliver a competitive edge once larger systems become available.
With the SIN1 rollout, Singapore joins an emerging wave of quantum-ready data-centre markets and underscores the role operators play in bundling next-generation compute resources with conventional infrastructure.
