Fluidstack and Macquarie Partner to Finance GPUs for AI Labs in Europe

Fluidstack and Macquarie Asset Management have announced a strategic GPU financing deal to supply GPUs to leading AI research labs across Europe, announced in a press release. This partnership allows AI labs to access cutting-edge compute resources without the burden of long-term contracts.

The financing structure, secured by the GPUs themselves, enables Fluidstack to provide AI compute to customers like Mistral, Character.AI, and Poolside. This flexibility is crucial as AI labs scale their infrastructure for training and deploying next-generation models.

Fluidstack and Macquarie plan to expand their collaboration, focusing on developing new financing models tailored to the unique needs of AI companies. Both organizations see Europe as a significant opportunity for future investments in AI infrastructure, particularly as the region accelerates its adoption of advanced AI technologies.
