Hive Digital stock surges on new data center project
Hive Digital published a press release on May 18 announcing that its wholly owned Buzz High Performance Computing subsidiary was moving forward with plans to build a new AI infrastructure facility in the Greater Toronto Area. The AI infrastructure facility is planned to deliver 320 megawatts of compute utility capacity and is expected to house more than 100,000 graphics processing units (GPUs) for AI compute.
What's next for Hive Digital?
Sovereign access to AI compute capabilities is emerging as a key strategic initiative for many companies, and Hive Digital could play an important role in Canada's efforts in the space. Buzz's facility is projected to be one of Canada's largest AI compute centers and is expected to go online in the second half of 2027. If the new facility is operational along that projected timeline, Hive could see its performance supercharged in the not-too-distant future.
