The Danish Centre for AI Innovation (DCAI) has secured a total investment of €67 million, equivalent to DKK 500 million. This funding round includes a contribution of €43.6 million (DKK 325 million) from Netcompany, which joins as a new shareholder, and €20.1 million (DKK 150 million) from the existing investor EIFO.
Following the transaction, the Novo Nordisk Foundation will maintain a majority stake of 52.6 percent in DCAI. Both EIFO and Netcompany will each hold a 23.7 percent interest in the company. Additionally, the Danish government plans to provide €20 million (DKK 150 million) to bolster public commitment through EIFO.
DCAI operates the Gefion supercomputer, which was inaugurated in 2024. The platform currently supports users in sectors such as defence, research, academia, healthcare, and industry. The new capital aims to expand access to these AI capabilities for public institutions, regulated industries, and smaller businesses.
The partnership integrates DCAI’s infrastructure with Netcompany’s expertise in managing complex digital systems. Netcompany will gain representation on the DCAI board of directors. This initiative aligns with the 2026 government platform, which seeks to position Denmark as a leader in the responsible development and application of artificial intelligence.
