NCS, a leading subsidiary of Singapore-based Singtel Group, has announced a strategic partnership with NVIDIA to deploy sovereign agentic AI solutions tailored for enterprises.
This collaboration seamlessly integrates NCS's advanced AI platforms, including Sunshine.AI, Video AI, Physical AI, and the AI and Data Analytics Platform, with NVIDIA AI Enterprise software.
Unlocking the Power of Sovereign Agentic AI
Sovereign agentic AI empowers AI agents to comprehend requests, make autonomous decisions, and execute actions while upholding rigorous security and data governance standards.
Organizations in regulated sectors such as healthcare, financial services, telecommunications, and the public sector can now deploy these AI solutions on-premises or in the cloud with complete control over sensitive data.
Evolution from Innovation to Scale
The partnership expands upon agentic AI solutions first unveiled at the NCS Impact Forum 2025, evolving from three initial offerings launched last year into a comprehensive portfolio for mission-critical applications.
Transformative Impacts and Future Horizons
Sam Liew, NCS Chief Executive Officer-Designate, emphasized, “Organizations want AI that solves business problems at scale, not just proofs-of-concept, and they want it without risking data security.”
High-impact applications include AI-powered service desks for rapid customer resolutions, smart video systems detecting safety risks in public spaces, intelligent logistics for warehouse coordination, and real-time monitoring for enhanced emergency responses.
This initiative promises to boost customer service, streamline operations, and enable faster, data-secure decision-making across industries.
By prioritizing Digital Resilience alongside AI, the solutions address the scalability challenges of mission-critical deployments.
Looking ahead, this alliance positions enterprises to harness agentic AI's full potential amid rising demands for sovereign, secure technologies in a data-driven world.
The announcement, made on March 18, 2026, marks a pivotal step in bridging innovative AI with practical, enterprise-grade security.
