Taiwan-based AI cloud provider Zettabyte has received investment from Headline Asia.

The terms of the deal have not been provided, including the value of the investment, but it will be used to support Zettabyte's expansion in Japan.

Headline's investment will support Zettabyte as it scales adoption of its GPU infrastructure software zWARE, and will also support the company's "Titan" data center expansion effort.

"Japan is entering a new build cycle for AI infrastructure, driven by power constraints, operator requirements, and enterprise demand," said Akio Tanaka, founding partner at Headline. "We invested in Zettabyte because their software layer improves visibility, utilization, and operational control in large GPU environments. We will support the team as they expand in Japan through industry relationships and execution support."

"Zettabyte helps GPU owners manage and operate their value hardware and optimize AI computing performance," added Sam Lawn, global CFO at Zettabyte. "We are excited to partner with the Headline team to support the rollout of Titan in Japan and to work alongside Japanese telecom carriers and data center operators to meet growing demand for AI compute."

Zettabyte offers GPU cloud services, providing access to Nvidia Blackwell, H200, and H100 hardware. The company claims to have 1.5GW of planned deployments, and more than 67,000 GPUs currently in its fleet

The company previously conducted a funding round in August 2025 led by Lam Capital, but similarly did not share how much was raised. The following month, BRV Capital invested in Zettabyte.

In August 2024, Zettabyte was said to be working on an AI data center in Taiwan in partnership with Wistron Corporation. Details, including timelines, location, or facility specifications, weren’t shared. No updates on the data center have since been provided.

In October 2025, the company introduced liquid cooling at a Chief Telecom data center in Taiwan to make it ready to host 100kW+ racks.

Headline Asia is an early-stage venture capital firm investing in Internet technology startups across Japan, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. The company previously invested in GMI Cloud.
