DCAI announces DKK 500m investment to expand Gefion’s AI capacity
Netcompany will join EIFO and the Novo Nordisk Foundation as a shareholder in Denmark’s AI supercomputer operator.
Danish Centre for AI Innovation (DCAI), the operator of Denmark’s Gefion supercomputer, has announced an investment package totalling DKK 500 million. Netcompany is investing DKK 325 million and EIFO a further DKK 150 million, while the Novo Nordisk Foundation is increasing its commitment.
Following completion, the foundation would own 52.6% of DCAI, with EIFO and Netcompany each holding 23.7%. The Danish government’s proposed budget includes DKK 150 million to strengthen public participation through EIFO.
The investment is intended to expand sovereign AI computing capacity and make it accessible to more researchers, businesses and public institutions, particularly organisations working with sensitive or regulated data. Netcompany will also join DCAI’s board.
