Groq® and Earth Wind & Power to Build AI Compute Center for Europe in Norway that May Rival Tech Giant Scale
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Groq, the only provider of real-time AI inference solutions for generative AI (GenAI), has signed a Letter of Intent with Earth Wind & Power to develop the first European vertically-integrated AI Compute Center, located in Norway. The second deal of its kind from Groq in the last two months, the deployment of the Groq LPU™ Inference Engine in Norway will provide Norwegians, European and NATO-allied countries with the lowest cost, most energy-efficient, scalable access to inference compute – the specific type of compute needed as the world shifts from training to powering GenAI applications. This AI Compute Center will also ignite the generative age economy in Norway and the EU by powering GenAI solutions and providing investors with an early opportunity to participate in the inference market.
