SWI Group on October 12, 2026 announced an €800 million institutional capital increase at a €6.1 billion final valuation. New ordinary shares raise total share capital to 558,399,385 and lift equity raised since March 2026 past €1 billion, with free float at about 20%. The company said proceeds will fund power infrastructure, compute deployments and its development pipeline across Europe and the United States. Founder and CEO Max-Hervé George said: "This transaction is about keeping up to speed with the compute and data center markets. We have a clear strategy, a substantial pipeline and a strong position across Europe and the United States." He added the Group was pleased to welcome new investors who share its long-term ambition. An August 25, 2026 disclosure put more than 80% of capital in a digital-infrastructure platform whose combined power capacity exceeds 4 GW. SWI completed a controlling stake above 70% in Genesis Digital Assets, to be renamed SWI Digital, with AiOnX developing hyperscale AI-ready campuses in Ireland, the UK, Denmark, Spain and Italy.
