In a historic technology tie-up, US chip leader Nvidia and UAE entity MGX have announced plans for building Europe’s largest data center close to Paris, with a target capacity of a staggering 1.4-gigawatt. This ambitious development is a giant leap in worldwide data infrastructure and thrusts France into the role of a key node in future AI computing.
The large campus will accommodate high-performance computing and artificial intelligence applications, meeting surging demand for cloud services, generative AI models, and real-time data processing. Energy-efficient and scalable, the facility demonstrates both companies’ dedication to sustainable digital growth.
MGX, a UAE-based advanced technology investment platform, provides significant financial support and innovation strategy, while Nvidia adds its advanced GPU technology—essential for AI model training and deployment. The alliance marks a strong union between Middle Eastern capital and US tech leadership.
The project has been greeted by French authorities as a success for economic growth, tech sovereignty, and environmental innovation. Upon completion, the data center will not only serve as a hub for European AI research but also be an example of cross-border cooperation in the digital age.
