KKR, Kuwait Investment Authority, Nvidia and Vistra are collaborating to launch Helix Digital Infrastructure, a new company designed to provide infrastructure for AI hyperscalers.
Helix will "serve as a single coordination point for hyperscalers' data centers, power, connectivity and related needs," KKR said Thursday.
The new company has more than $10 billion in long-duration capital commitments to date. Following the closing of founding commitments, Helix is open to additional institutional investors.
Nvidia will support the deployment of its DSX AI factory-aligned infrastructure, while energy company Vistra will provide power.
Helix will be led by Adam Selipsky, a former chief executive of Amazon Web Services. KKR's global head of digital infrastructure, Waldemar Szlezak, will serve as Helix's chief investment officer.
As demand for AI climbs, hyperscalers such as Anthropic, Google and Meta are looking for infrastructure that ties in all their needs.
"Large users of digital infrastructure have an urgent need to reduce complexity and unlock new capacity," Selipsky said.
Helix will aim to invest in and manage assets related to AI, including hyperscale data center development and operations, power generation, and fiber and connectivity infrastructure.
