Hive Digital Subsidiary Joins Four-Way Sovereign AI Deal; Acquires 32 MW Swedish Data Center
HIVE•Hive Digital will partner with Bell AI Fabric, Cohere and Hypertec to deploy NVIDIA DSX AI infrastructure on Canadian-built servers, strengthening its sovereign compute presence. Hive won approval to acquire the 32 MW Big Boden data center in Sweden, converting a 960 million SEK tenant into ownership and boosting Tier III GPU capacity.
1. Landmark Canadian AI Infrastructure Partnership
Hive Digital’s BUZZ HPC unit will integrate Bell AI Fabric’s Merritt, BC data center and connectivity with Cohere’s enterprise-grade language models and Hypertec’s Canadian-manufactured hardware, powered by NVIDIA’s DSX AI factory platform. This collaboration builds a secure, scalable AI stack for R&D and production workloads on sovereign Canadian infrastructure, addressing demand for data control, performance and cybersecurity.
2. Acquisition of Big Boden Data Center
The Boden Municipal Council approved Hive’s takeover of the 32 MW Big Boden facility from Bodens Utvecklings AB, shifting the company from tenant to owner. Over eight years Hive invested 960 million SEK locally, paid 575 million SEK in taxes and partnered on heat-reuse and community projects; full ownership paves the way for Tier III upgrades and expanded GPU compute.
3. Strategic Global AI Compute Expansion
These moves align with Hive’s strategy to build renewable-powered, sovereign AI compute capacity across Canada, Sweden and Paraguay. The Canadian deal and Swedish acquisition add hundreds of megawatts of GPU-accelerated infrastructure, positioning Hive to capture growing enterprise AI demand and reinforce its long-term commitment to host communities and economic resilience.
