HYRA NETWORK WINS WITSA’S TOP GLOBAL AI HONOUR, EYES US$10 BLN NASDAQ IPO

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 22 (Bernama) -- Hyra Network, a pioneering force in decentralised artificial intelligence (AI) and sovereign digital infrastructure, has received the Chairman’s Award 2025 — the highest accolade presented annually by the World Innovation, Technology and Services Alliance (WITSA).

Presented at the WITSA Global AI Summit, the honour makes Hyra Network the first decentralised AI platform to earn this global distinction, according to a statement.

Hyra Holdings & Hyra Network Founder and Chairman, John Tran called the award a validation of Hyra’s mission to empower nations and individuals with AI ownership.

“This award is both WITSA’s recognition and Hyra’s unwavering commitment to building a decentralised digital civilisation – one that celebrates fairness and puts people in control,” said Tran.

Meanwhile, WITSA Chairman, Datuk Dr Sean Seah Kok Wah said Hyra Network is setting a new benchmark for decentralised AI.

“The Chairman’s Award is reserved for truly outstanding initiatives that demonstrate exceptional innovation and global impact,” he added.

Built on a Layer-3 blockchain, Hyra Network combines a verifiable compute grid with decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO) governance, offering a transparent, privacy-first AI infrastructure. Its sovereign AI architecture serves governments, enterprises, and citizens seeking control over digital futures.

Hyra’s three-pronged platform—Hyra AI, Hyra Zone, and Hyra Mega—acts as a full-stack ecosystem enabling secure AI processing, graphics processing unit (GPU) training, and open model exchange, all independent of Big Tech control.

With over 2.7 million devices connected across more than 200 countries, the network has proven decentralised AI can scale globally. Its operations span Vietnam and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), reinforcing its cross-border capabilities.

The award accelerates Hyra’s expansion plans, including a regional hub in the UAE and preparations for a US$10 billion Nasdaq initial public offering (IPO) by 2030. (US$1=RM4.22)

As AI governance becomes a global concern, Hyra Network is positioning itself as the operating system for a sovereign digital age.
