Live Platform Enables Users to Purchase AI Tokens and Access Supported Models, Including OpenAI GPT, Kimi, Meta Llma and Qwen

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — VCI Global Limited (NASDAQ: VCIG) (“VCI Global” or the “Company”) today announced that VGAIN Compute, an AI token platform developed by its subsidiary V Gallant Limited (“V Gallant”), has gone live, marking another step in the Company’s expansion into AI infrastructure, GPU computing and AI services.

VGAIN Compute enables users to purchase AI tokens to access supported large language models (LLMs), including OpenAI GPT models associated with ChatGPT, Kimi, Meta Llama and Qwen. By bringing multiple AI models into a single access platform, VGAIN Compute is designed to serve a broad range of use cases, including content generation, coding, research, business applications and workflow automation.

The launch gives V Gallant a direct, customer-facing platform for AI services while creating a commercial layer that can complement the Company’s broader investments in AI computing infrastructure.

Connecting AI Infrastructure with AI Demand

VCI Global’s AI strategy spans both the infrastructure required to power AI workloads and the platforms through which users consume AI services.

Through V Gallant, the Company is developing capabilities across AI computing and infrastructure while building commercial channels that connect computing capacity with end-user demand. VGAIN Compute represents an important component of this approach, providing a usage-based platform through which customers can purchase AI tokens and access supported AI models.

As the platform develops, V Gallant expects to evaluate opportunities to expand its model catalogue, introduce additional enterprise-focused capabilities and support increasingly sophisticated AI workloads.

The platform is also designed to support developers and businesses exploring agentic AI applications, where AI models can be used to execute tasks, coordinate processes and automate workflows. Such applications can generate recurring demand for AI inference, the computing process through which AI models produce responses and outputs.

“Our objective is to build an AI business that connects infrastructure with real-world customer demand,” said Victor Hoo, Group Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of VCI Global. “With VGAIN Compute now live, we have established a customer-facing platform through which users can purchase AI tokens and access a range of leading AI models. This gives us a foundation to develop the services side of our AI strategy as we continue expanding our computing capabilities.”

The launch of VGAIN Compute provides V Gallant with an initial platform from which to develop a broader AI services ecosystem.

Going forward, the Company expects to focus on expanding the supported model catalogue, increasing platform adoption, developing enterprise use cases and aligning additional computing capacity with customer requirements.

For VCI Global, the opportunity extends beyond providing access to individual AI models. The Company sees potential across AI inference, enterprise automation, agentic AI and other compute-intensive workloads, with infrastructure expansion to be guided by customer demand, hardware availability and project economics.
