SWI Group acquires majority stake in GDA, a 1.3 GW U.S. digital infrastructure provider, expanding American AI compute capacity.

SWI Group, the Euronext Amsterdam-listed investment conglomerate, announced a binding agreement on June 15, 2026, to acquire an additional shareholding in Genesis Digital Assets Limited (GDA), one of the largest privately-held digital infrastructure companies, thereby achieving a majority holding position. The acquisition will expand the Group's combined global capacity to over 3.6 GW. GDA holds over 1.3 GW of energized and approved grid connections across 15 facilities, including multiple hyperscaler-grade sites in Texas, with operations primarily in the United States.

Alongside the GDA acquisition, SWI Group agreed to acquire a majority stake in Polarise, an AI digital infrastructure provider focused on building underlying infrastructure for AI and providing high-performance computing (HPC) capacities through its hardware and software offerings. Polarise, founded in Germany, is an official NVIDIA Cloud Service Provider and has recently launched the first industrial-scale AI Factory in Germany in partnership with Deutsche Telekom and NVIDIA.

SWI Group's existing digital infrastructure platform, AiOnX, comprises 2.3 GW of European data center capacity across five strategically located hyperscale projects in Ireland, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Spain, and Italy, which are partially leased to one of the largest hyperscalers. These combined investments position the Group to significantly expand its digital infrastructure footprint.

According to Max-Hervé George, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of SWI Group, "The acquisition of a majority shareholding in GDA will significantly expand SWI Group's digital infrastructure footprint to include the USA, the largest and fastest-growing market for AI and HPC data centers. By aggregating these European and US platforms, the Group is creating a leading global digital infrastructure player offering full, vertically integrated cloud and AI computing capacity across the 5 layers of AI: land, chips, infrastructure, models and applications."

SWI Group, with approximately €10 billion of assets under management and over 280 employees across 26 offices worldwide, operates across multiple sectors including Data Centers, Real Estate, Credit, and the Financial Sector. The repositioning of GDA's assets for high-performance computing and AI workloads reflects the strategic consolidation of digital infrastructure resources to serve the rapidly expanding demand in these markets.
