Pan-European MSP Advania has acquired Gompute, a high-performance computing (HPC) and AI infrastructure platform. It was bought from Nordic data centre services firm atNorth.
The acquisition includes Gompute's teams in Sweden and Spain, who will continue their work as part of Advania Sweden. “This strengthens Advania Sweden's market position, while enabling clients to meet strict data sovereignty requirements,” said Advania.
The transaction is pending regulatory approval and is expected to close during the third quarter of 2025.
Gompute delivers a full stack solution for demanding HPC and AI workloads through private cloud services and scalable computing clusters. It serves enterprise clients in sectors including financial services, automotive, and computer-aided engineering (CAE).
Advania says Gompute customers will now benefit from its broader AI capabilities, resources and local expertise across Northern Europe.
“As AI adoption accelerates across industries, organisations need infrastructure that meets both performance and regulatory demands,” said Henrik Foyn-Laukvik, head of M&A at Advania. “With Gompute, we can deliver those capabilities in-region, on-demand and under full client control, ensuring regulatory compliance without compromising performance.”
Gompute will not be leaving atNorth completely though. “Driven by continued growing demand for atNorth’s services, we are sharpening our focus on high-density colocation and build-to-suit data centres,” said Eyjólfur Magnús Kristinsson, CEO of atNorth. “Gompute has played a key role in our HPC journey, and its evolution with Advania marks an exciting next chapter. Advania's AI-ready sovereign cloud vision aligns seamlessly with the platform, and hosting it in our high-density data centres will enhance our strategic partnership and deliver a powerful solution for the market’s evolving needs.”
Last month, Advania acquired AI transformation consultancy The AI Framework.
