atNorth Partners with 6G AI Sweden to Launch a National AI Cloud

In a groundbreaking initiative, atNorth, a premier Nordic colocation and high-performance computing provider, has announced a partnership with 6G AI Sweden to host a revolutionary National AI Cloud. This ambitious project aims to consolidate advanced artificial intelligence infrastructure at atNorth’s SWE01 data center located in Stockholm.

Transforming the AI Landscape in Sweden

The agreement is set to leverage cutting-edge technology, notably including Nvidia's latest AI chips—H200 and Blackwell GB200. These powerful tools will not only enhance the AI capabilities within Sweden but will also mark a significant step in establishing the country as a leader in sovereign AI infrastructure. M. A. Zaman, the Founder and Chairman of 6G AI Sweden, emphasized the importance of this development, stating, "This agreement is an important milestone for establishing 6G AI Sweden as a leading provider of sovereign AI infrastructure in Sweden."

By harnessing Nvidia's state-of-the-art technology, this partnership sets the stage for creating a robust National AI Cloud that will serve various sectors and industries.

Commitment to Sustainability

At the forefront of this initiative is a commitment to data sovereignty and environmental sustainability. Hosting the infrastructure at SWE01 ensures that all data remains compliant with GDPR regulations while also being governed under Swedish jurisdiction. Furthermore, atNorth has prioritized sustainability; the SWE01 data center utilizes renewable energy sources and incorporates innovative heat reuse technologies to minimize environmental impact. This alignment with sustainable goals reflects both companies' dedication to responsible AI advancement, as highlighted by Anders Fryxell, Chief Sales Officer at atNorth, who noted, "This partnership reflects a shared ethos of driving innovation while minimizing environmental impact."

Future-Ready Innovations

The launch of the National AI Cloud aims to empower Swedish businesses to adopt AI technologies responsibly, thereby fostering innovation across numerous sectors. Joining forces in this strategic move reinforces the potential of AI in transforming traditional business models and elevating productivity.

This announcement follows atNorth's recent collaborations, including its heat reuse partnership with Kesko Corporation and plans for significant expansions into new geographical regions, including a potential mega-site in the Municipality of Sollefteå. Such expansions are part of atNorth's continued efforts to enhance its land bank and broaden its service offerings in high-performance computing and colocation services.
