Sirius Digitech, Backed By Adani And Sirius International Holding, Acquires Cloud Platform Company Coredge.io
Coredge is an innovative venture specialising in sovereign cloud technology, providing highly secure and scalable cloud solutions optimised for AI applications
Sirius Digitech Limited, a joint venture between the Adani Group and Sirius International Holding (a subsidiary of International Holding Company, IHC), has signed binding agreements to acquire Coredge.io Private Limited, a sovereign AI and cloud platform company.
Jeet Adani, Director of Adani Group, said, “As nations increasingly prioritise data security, it is more important than ever that organisations have the option to retain their data within national borders rather than relying solely on the public cloud. Sovereign Data Centers become extremely important for protecting sensitive information and maintaining national security, given the exponential growth in artificial intelligence-driven demand for computation and sovereign data stack.”
“An additional benefit of this acquisition is our ability to put AI capabilities directly in the hands of organisations that require specialised sovereign cloud services for AI training and inferencing,” he added.
Ajay Bhatia, CEO of Sirius International Holding, added: “Coredge’s has demonstrated a global presence with the ability to scale solutions through sovereign AI cloud services that are globally available but locally operable.”
“This step underscores our commitment to offering a portfolio of secure, trusted and localised cloud AI technologies to our customers and partners,” Bhatia said.

With a focus on the trillion-dollar global sovereign cloud market, Coredge aims to leverage its expertise in accelerating hyper-local cloud service providers while maintaining strict data sovereignty and compliance standards, according to the official statement.
“Partnering with Sirius marks an exciting new chapter for our sovereign AI and cloud platform business, both in India and globally. Together, we can accelerate the development and delivery of advanced AI services while upholding security, privacy and digital sovereignty principles, helping customers across the globe drive technological transformation while complying with their data ethics principles,” said Arif Khan, CEO of Coredge.io.
