Core42 establishes European headquarters in Dublin
G42 sovereign AI and cloud company expands after French and Italian deployments
#Ireland #UAE #corporate - G42 Group’s sovereign cloud, AI infrastructure, and services company Core42, has established its European headquarters in Dublin to serve as the regional hub for customer delivery, engineering leadership and partner engagement. The announcement, made at the Investopia global investment platform event in Dublin, follows Core42’s 2024 European expansion including a national-scale AI infrastructure deployment in Grenoble, France with partners DataOne and Oreus, and collaboration with Italy-based Domyn to build Europe’s largest AI compute cluster.
SO WHAT? - Core42’s decision to establish a European headquarters in Dublin, signals that the G42 group is in rapid expansion in Europe following a string of large-scale government-backed deals over the past year. The group announced a new London-headquartered subsidiary G42 Europe & UK in June, to support government and private sector deals for critical AI infrastructure and associated investment across the UK and continental Europe. Core42’s choice of Dublin for its main European operations indicates a layered group strategy that aims to address developing the European and UK market at different levels with different business models.
Here are some key points about the new Dublin operation:
Sovereign cloud, AI infrastructure, and services company Core42, a subsidiary of G42, has established its European headquarters in Dublin, Ireland. The move was announced at the Investopia global investment platform event in Dublin.
Registered in Dublin as Core42 Technology Operations Limited earlier this year, the company will commence formal Dublin operations in early 2026 with plans to expand its European teams throughout the year
Core42 builds infrastructure and services for large-scale AI, focusing on sovereign cloud, advanced compute platforms and hyperscale AI environments that support production-grade AI across sectors through partnerships with Microsoft, NVIDIA, AMD and Cerebras.
The European headquarters will serve as the regional hub for customer delivery, engineering leadership, regulatory engagement and ecosystem partnerships, strengthening Core42’s ability to serve European enterprises and governments seeking secure, high-performance infrastructure to scale AI adoption.
Core42 has expanded its European presence through large-scale sovereign compute initiative including a national-scale AI infrastructure deployment in Grenoble, France with partners DataOne and Oreus, and collaboration with Italy-based Domyn to build Europe’s largest AI compute cluster.
Core42’s AI Cloud platform provides self-service access to high-performance compute for training, inference and large-scale experimentation, with managed delivery functions and AI solutioning capabilities supporting customers through cloud modernisation, data readiness and the full AI adoption lifecycle.
At Investopia, Core42 and Emerging Markets Intelligence and Research released a report exploring infrastructure, policy and investment conditions required for Europe to accelerate AI capabilities, drawing on comparative insights from the UAE’s rapid AI scale-up.
ZOOM OUT - Core42 was formed in October 2023 when G42 merged three subsidiaries, G42 Cloud, Inception and Injazat, to create an integrated AI and data services provider. The merger combined cloud infrastructure, AI model development, managed services and consulting capabilities into a single entity designed to serve large-scale enterprise digital transformation needs. G42 spun out Inception into a separate operating company again in August 2024, which has since taken on an AI product-first mandate. Meanwhile, Core42 has focused on building an infrastructure agnostic portfolio of sovereign AI and cloud services over the past two years, with business across the United States and Europe.
