Why Verne sees the Nordics winning Europe’s AI data centre race | The Tech Capital

Tate Cantrell, CTO of Verne, joins The Tech Capital on the final day of PTC'26 to explain why the Nordics are fast emerging as a key hub for AI data centre development in Europe. Drawing on Verne’s long history in the region, he outlines how abundant power, strong utility infrastructure and favourable climate conditions are attracting growing AI demand. Cantrell discusses how AI is driving a shift toward extreme compute density, transforming data centres from office-style buildings into factory-like environments designed for megawatt-scale cabinets. He shares Verne’s perspective on liquid cooling, chiller-less compute, and why cooling remains essential despite claims around higher operating temperatures from next-generation AI architectures. The conversation also explores Verne’s work with neocloud providers, the financial realities of deploying GPU infrastructure, futureproofing for new silicon platforms, and why greater industry alignment through initiatives like OCP is critical as AI reshapes digital infrastructure. ++++ Follow us on: Subscribe: https://thetechcapital.com/register/ Twitter:   / thetechcapital_   LinkedIn:   / the-tech-capital   Instagram:   / thetechcapital_   Facebook:   / the-tech-capital-101679965480510   YouTube:    / @thetechcapital   #digitalinfrastructure #datacenter #thetechcapital #cloudadoption #cloudcomputing #datacentre #infrastructure #youleadwereport
