Gorilla Technology Group Completes Strategic Investment in Real-Time Infrastructure Intelligence Leader Astrikos.ai

Investment will enhance Gorilla's AI infrastructure offerings and strengthen its global footprint, supporting growth across India, USA and UAE

Gorilla Technology Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GRRR) ("Gorilla" or the "Company"), a global solution provider in AI-driven Security Intelligence, Network Intelligence, Business Intelligence and IoT technology, today announced its strategic investment into Astrikos.ai, a fast-growing infrastructure intelligence company that specialises in real-time monitoring, prediction, and optimisation for critical national systems.

As an emerging leader in real-time infrastructure intelligence, the Company believes Astrikos.ai will enhance Gorilla's video intelligence stack, smart city architecture, and GPU-as-a-Service data centre model. From an initial position as a significant minority investor in Astrikos.ai, Gorilla has an option to materially increase its equity ownership.

"Astrikos.ai gives us a springboard into the United Arab Emirates, the USA, and India-all leading technology markets," said Jay Chandan, Chairman and CEO of Gorilla. "By joining forces with Astrikos.ai, we combine their deep Indian presence and infrastructure intelligence engine with our proven delivery across the Middle East and Asia. We can deliver AI-ready national infrastructure at scale and move decisively into markets that are expanding at historic speed."

The transaction strengthens Gorilla's position in India's fast-growing, AI-ready digital infrastructure market and unlocks an immediate technology advantage for GPU-rich data centres, smart cities, and national-scale systems.

India's AI-optimised data centre market is forecast to grow from $1.19 billion in 2025 to more than $3.10 billion by 2030, with a sustained growth rate above 20%. The broader data centre industry is expected to reach $21.8 billion by 2030, driven by AI adoption and data localisation.

"Astrikos.ai's platform is one of the most capable real-time infrastructure intelligence engines we have seen," said Dr. Rajesh Natarajan, Chief Technology Officer of Gorilla. "India's data centre capacity is projected to rise rapidly from roughly 1.7 gigawatts today to as much as 8 gigawatts by 2030, which will demand predictive optimisation, continuous telemetry, intelligent security, and integrated SOC/NOC capability. Gorilla now offers all of this as a single integrated platform. The technical synergy is immediate, and it positions us to execute at national scale in all our core target markets."

Headquartered in Bangaluru, India, Astrikos.ai's technology has been deployed across multiple marquee programmes, including state-level smart city platforms, the New Indian Parliament complex and major international infrastructure initiatives in the Middle East.

"India is moving through a profound infrastructure expansion cycle, and the demand for AI-driven intelligence is rising across every sector," said Chinmaya Hegde, Chief Executive Officer of Astrikos.ai. "By combining Astrikos.ai's real-time prediction optimisation and infrastructure analytics with Gorilla's data centre vision, video intelligence, and global deployment capabilities, we create a powerful platform that can serve India today and global markets tomorrow. The cross-pollination of our technologies allows us to deliver smarter, faster, and more resilient AI infrastructure. This partnership is not only transformational for India; it creates a global blueprint that we will take to market in the months ahead."
