Summary
$10 billion over six years will give Anthropic computing capacity from Volta Infra Holdings, a startup founded in January and backed by Nvidia, Bloomberg reported.
133 megawatts of capacity will be delivered at a Norway data center with Bitdeer, powered by Nvidia's Vera Rubin chips; Bitdeer shares rose nearly 10% in premarket trading.
Volta said the Norway project is the first in a pipeline topping 1 gigawatt across North America and Europe, and it separately launched a $5 billion infrastructure program with Azora.
Anthropic has been lining up more compute as demand for Claude grows, including deals with SpaceX, AMD and Akamai, while discussing a separate Meta lease worth up to $10 billion over two years.
