FingerMotion partners with Lyken.AI and BlueFlare for AI-driven demand layer

FingerMotion, Inc., a technology firm with a growing user base in China, has announced a strategic partnership with Lyken.AI and BlueFlare Energy Solutions Inc. to operationalize a customer-facing demand layer under FingerMotion’s existing development framework. The move comes as the company continues to explore natural gas supply options for behind-the-meter generation at certain Alberta corridor sites.
On September 3, 2026, FingerMotion, Inc. (Nasdaq: FNGR) reported that it had entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Lyken AI Computing Inc., operating as Lyken.AI, and BlueFlare Energy Solutions Inc. The MOU, effective as of September 2026, aims to establish a preferred, non-exclusive demand-to-capacity matching framework, connecting Lyken’s enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) client pipeline with potential modular behind-the-meter (BTM) capacity evaluated or developed under FingerMotion’s existing BlueFlare alliance.
The initial geographic focus of this framework is Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, Canada. The parties may consider other jurisdictions by written agreement. According to Jolie Kahn, Chief Executive Officer of FingerMotion, Inc., the MOU is intended to complement and support the existing FingerMotion-BlueFlare development framework by adding a coordinated process for evaluating qualified Lyken demand.
Kahn elaborated, "We have consistently viewed Lyken and BlueFlare as complementary parts of the same enterprise AI infrastructure strategy. This framework advances the plan we announced on August 27: FingerMotion evaluates projects as contemplated owner-operator, BlueFlare remains our primary development partner in Western Canada, and Lyken contributes the customer-facing path to qualified enterprise workloads and managed services."
Chris Polimeni, Chief Financial Officer of FingerMotion, added, "The BlueFlare relationship has progressed from a single-project discussion to a multi-site development program. Securing firm gas supply remains a condition to converting identified corridor sites into contracted capacity and matching qualified Lyken demand to that capacity is how we intend to underwrite project-level capital rather than fund development from the corporate balance sheet."
FingerMotion is also in ongoing, non-binding discussions with natural gas suppliers and midstream counterparties regarding possible firm supply arrangements to support generation at its corridor sites. No definitive supply agreement has been executed, and there is no assurance that these discussions will result in a binding agreement.
The company is evaluating project opportunities on a project-by-project basis, with advancement subject to various conditions, including satisfactory site control, fuel supply, generation or interconnection, equipment availability, networking and connectivity, customer diligence, credit support, and binding off-take. Technical, environmental, and operational reviews must also be acceptable, and sufficient financing must be available on acceptable terms.
FingerMotion’s corridor model involves locating compute capacity along existing natural gas infrastructure and generating electricity on site, rather than relying solely on utility interconnection queues and available grid capacity. This structure aims to reduce time to energization and improve visibility on power costs, which are expected to be a principal operating input for high-density compute.
FingerMotion continues to develop new tools and services for its growing user base in the People’s Republic of China and is extending its strategy into the enterprise AI and cloud compute market through its equity position in Lyken AI Computing Inc., its owner-operator strategy, and its existing development alliance with BlueFlare.
