Verda Cloud Oy

Founded in 2020, by Ruben Bryon (CEO) and based in Helsinki, Finland, Verda, formerly known as DataCrunch, is a cloud computing provider specialising in GPU-based infrastructure for machine learning, artificial intelligence, and performance computing applications. In September 2026, Verda Cloud Oy raised EUR 163 million in series B funding led by Emergence Capital, with participation from 6 Degrees Capital, Endur ASA, Super Micro Computer, Inc. , MUFG Innovation Partners, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company, Tesi, byFounders, and Lifeline Ventures. DataCrunch's product portfolio includes GPU instances: These on-demand and long-term instances cater to various computational needs, from training large machine learning models for precision tasks such as FP64 computations.

Customers can configure and deploy instances tailored to specific requirements. GPU Clusters: These are custom-built clusters managed by DataCrunch. These are equipped with NVIDIA GPUs, including the H100 and H200 series, and utilise advanced interconnect technologies, such as NVLINK and InfiniBand, for communication. Serverless Inference: This service offers autoscaling and deployment for model inference.

It eliminates manual setup, enabling customers to deploy models with minimal effort while managing computational resources dynamically. Additional features include ISO 27001-certified security measures, instant machine setup, and engineering support available through a user-friendly dashboard. The company plans to use the September 2026 funding to expand its AI cloud infrastructure, increase compute capacity, accelerate product development, and support growth across Europe, the US, and Asia.
