Cloudzy is inviting universities, researchers, professors, and student-led projects to apply for cloud infrastructure support through its Education Program, which provides cloud credits and computing resources. The program, established in April 2025, highlights five existing university partnerships across four countries. EIN Presswire published the announcement on October 21, 2026.

Cloudzy's Five University Partnerships

The program's five active partnerships span Canada, Italy, the United States, and the United Arab Emirates. The University of Toronto Formula Racing team in Canada is a student-led Formula SAE group covering vehicle design, manufacturing, electronics, and software. Dynamis PRC at Politecnico di Milano in Italy develops electric and autonomous racing prototypes. UCalgary Racing at the University of Calgary in Canada is a student engineering team building electric open-wheel race cars. UW Formula Motorsports at the University of Washington in the United States is a Formula SAE Electric team with an autonomous vehicle program. The University of Birmingham Rocket Propulsion Labs in the UAE is a Dubai-based student aerospace laboratory working on rocketry, avionics, structures, and telemetry.

These teams were among the early participants in the initiative, and their disciplines reflect the projects that initially approached Cloudzy rather than a restriction on who can apply. The program provides infrastructure support rather than financial grants. Applications from different academic fields are reviewed individually, with eligibility and resources assessed according to the project. Interested universities, faculty members, research groups, and student teams can apply through the company's education program page.

Cloudzy's Scale and Infrastructure

According to akta.pro company records, Cloudzy serves more than 122,000 builders and developers worldwide across 13 global regions, with six locations in North America, four in Europe, one in the Middle East, and two in Asia-Pacific. The company commits to a 99.95% uptime SLA across all 13 regions. The same records show Cloudzy launched a GPU VPS product line in 2026 with NVIDIA L4, L40S, and H100 accelerators, billed by the second starting at $0.40 per hour. Cloudzy is an independent, bootstrapped cloud infrastructure provider founded in 2008 and headquartered in Dubai, offering AMD EPYC-based VPS, GPU, and dedicated server products.

What Comes Next for Applicants

Cloudzy said applications are reviewed individually, with eligibility and resources assessed per project. The company did not state a deadline or a fixed number of credits per accepted project. Universities, faculty members, research groups, and student teams can apply through the program page.
