Barcelona Welcomes CoreWeave’s AI Cloud Platform with New Data Center Launch
Barcelona has cemented its position in Europe’s digital economy with the inauguration of a cutting-edge data center hosting CoreWeave’s AI cloud platform. The facility, launched with support from city officials including Mayor Jaume Collboni and Generalitat de Catalunya’s Albert Tort, underscores Barcelona’s ambition to become a sustainable tech hub.
The partnership between CoreWeave and MERLIN Edged signals a strategic push into AI infrastructure, though the announcement notably omitted discussion of blockchain integrations or cryptocurrency applications. Market observers anticipate potential downstream effects on compute-focused tokens like FIL, RNDR, or AI as demand for decentralized AI infrastructure grows.
