About Navon

Navon is a Nairobi-based company that builds and operates deep tech parks in Africa and emerging markets. Its parks combine modular data centres, sovereign GPU cloud and local AI, powered by clean energy from the Olkaria geothermal corridor in Kenya.

Its offering spans modular colocation, server systems, connectivity, private cloud and cyber security, alongside initiatives such as deep tech parks, digital embassies and Navon Futures. The company describes itself as a full-stack sovereign compute provider rather than a data centre company, and it runs a waitlist, documentation and a live status page called Navon Live.
