Cloud infrastructure startup Nava has raised $22 million in a Series A funding round led by Greenoaks, with participation from RTP Global and Unicorn India Ventures. The company, earlier known as Kluisz, also announced its rebranding as Nava as it enters its next phase of growth.
As part of its expansion strategy, Nava will establish Singapore as its regional headquarters to strengthen its presence across the Asia-Pacific region. The startup had previously raised $9.6 million in seed funding backed by RTP Global, Unicorn India Ventures, Blume Founders Fund, and Climber Capital.
Founded in 2025 by Abhinav Sinha, Vamshidhar Reddy, and Abhijeet Singh, Nava aims to build a full-stack AI cloud platform tailored for modern enterprise needs. The founding team brings experience from companies such as OYO, Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey & Company, AMD, Reliance Jio, and AT&T.
The company plans to use the fresh capital to expand its AI compute infrastructure, grow operations across Asia-Pacific, and hire specialized talent in GPU engineering, AI data center design, and operations. Nava is building a 'neo-cloud' platform designed specifically for AI workloads, combining AI-optimized data centers, high-performance GPU computing, and developer-focused tools.

Demand for AI infrastructure is rising rapidly. Industry reports suggest that data center capacity in Southeast Asia may need to triple by 2030 to keep pace with growing AI adoption, with India facing a similar gap.
The founders said the funding marks a key milestone as they work toward building foundational AI cloud infrastructure for Asia. Investors also highlighted the team’s strong execution and the growing demand for purpose-built AI computing platforms.
