Hyra Holdings, a Vietnam-based blockchain and artificial intelligence company, has entered a strategic partnership with technology services provider AHT Tech, aiming to scale its AI ecosystem while aligning operations with international security and compliance standards.

Under the agreement, AHT Tech’s AI models will be integrated into Hyra Mega, Hyra’s global AI exchange platform.

The two companies will also jointly develop the Hyra Compliance Security project, targeting internationally recognized standards including SOC 2, PCI and ISO certifications.

Nguyen Manh Ha, CEO of AHT Tech, said the partnership would accelerate the commercialization of the firm’s AI products. Hyra chairman and CEO Tran Nam Chung said the group is pursuing a co-creation strategy with partners, including deeper forms of collaboration such as cross-shareholdings.

Founded in 2021, Hyra operates across AI and blockchain technologies. The company said it had more than one million users globally as of end-2024. Its Hyra AI platform reports over two million connected devices across 205 countries and territories, with estimated computing capacity of around 360,000 teraflops.

Businessman Pham Thanh Hung, widely known as “Shark Hung” from Vietnam’s Shark Tank TV show, is an independent board member of Hyra.

Hyra has been expanding its partner network in recent months. In October, it signed a strategic cooperation deal with AI developer Haimaker to build an open, decentralized AI ecosystem, and separately partnered with Thai An Holdings to apply AI and digital technologies in the art and collectibles space.

The company said it is investing about $30 million in the development of its Hyra Zone data center and has expanded operations into markets including Singapore, Dubai and the United States. Under its medium-term strategy for 2026-2030, Hyra plans to roll out nine core technology products and enter more than 30 international markets.

Looking further ahead, Hyra Network is targeting an initial public offering between 2030 and 2035, with an ambition to reach a valuation of several billion dollars.
