Beyond.pl and The City of Poznan in an innitiative to bring Baltic AI GigaFactory to the capital of the Greater Poland

Poznan is a home to the first fully commercial and sovereign AI Factory in the CEE region, hosted on the Beyond.pl Data Center campus, and powered by the F.I.N. supercomputer built on the NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD reference architecture. Beyond.pl is the most advanced project in the region and will enable the launch of the giga-factory faster, at a lower investment, and especially without the need to build data center infrastructure and technical competencies from scratch.

Key advantages that Beyond.pl and Poznan together bring include:

• a fully commissioned data center with the highest levels of security (Rated 4 infrastructure) in the EU,
• guaranteed 98 MW energy capacity available on the campus,
• unique in the region technical expertise gained during the operation of the first commercial and sovereign AI Factory in Central and Eastern Europe,
• excellent connectivity with Western Europe, Southern Europe, and the Baltic countries, enabling for the BAIGF to be interconnected with other European AI hubs to form a transnational computing network,
• 100% green energy from one of the most energy efficient locations (PUE levels as low as 1.15) & heat recovery project realized together with @Veolia Energia Poznan which will contribute to Poznan becoming the first zero-emission city in Europe,
• 20 years of experience from proving colocation, Managed Cloud, and Managed Services to more than 500 companies in the EU from multiple sectors.

An additional strength of Poznan is its mature tech ecosystem with the AI Factory. Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center with its quantum computer, academic institutions such as Poznan University of Technology and The Adam Mickiewicz University, as well as the Łukasiewicz research institute form a robust R&D environment for advanced artificial intelligence initiatives.
