Company President Brad Smith announced Microsoft's $3.2 billion investment in Sweden for cloud and AI expansion, citing it as their largest investment in the country.
Smith highlighted the costs for the datacenter expansion as construction, purchase of 20k GPUs, and training of 250k Swedes in AI from basic to specialized skills.
Microsoft aims to diversify chips used in Sweden, including Nvidia H100, AMD, and potentially their own chips, aligning with their bullish stance on Nvidia.
Sweden's abundance of green energy is a key reason for Microsoft's investment, in line with their commitment to reduce carbon emissions and consumption of fossil fuels.
