Saudi Arabian data center company DataVolt has signed a $20 billion agreement with Super Micro Computer (Supermicro).

The agreement, described as a multi-year partnership, will see Supermicro delivering GPU platforms and rack systems to DataVolt's "hyperscale AI campuses" in Saudi Arabia and the US.

“We are thrilled to partner with Supermicro and build on the strong foundations laid in these first 100 days of the Trump administration. The policies and engagement of President Trump’s administration and the strategic vision of His Royal Highness Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, created a welcome business environment," said Rajit Nanda, CEO of DataVolt.

"Our vision is to pair gigawatt-class renewable and net-zero green hydrogen power with the industry’s most advanced server technology, giving customers access to unprecedented scale and sustainability. Partnering with Supermicro guarantees us a US-made supply chain for critical GPU systems and positions DataVolt to accelerate our investment plans.”

Supermicro CEO Charles Liang added: “We are excited to partner with DataVolt and continue expanding our manufacturing efforts in the United States. By working together, we will bring cutting-edge AI and compute infrastructure, enabling the Kingdom’s vision of becoming a global hub for technology and innovation.”

This year so far has seen DataVolt announcing plans for two new data centers in Saudi Arabia - a facility in Riyadh, and another 1.5GW campus in Neom's Oxagon.

Riyadh-based DataVolt was founded in 2023 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Vision Invest, a Saudi Arabian development and investment holding company focused on critical infrastructure.

The company has committed to investing more than $5 billion in developing around 300MW of data center capacity in the country, and previously announced plans for data centers in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and Uzbekistan.

The deal is a boost for Supermicro, which in the last year has faced challenges after serious allegations from a short seller, and an ongoing investigation from the US Department of Justice over possible financial irregularities.

While the committee reported in December 2024 that it found “no evidence of fraud or misconduct” on the part of management or the board, it did recommend Supermicro replace its CFO, a process which the company said it has started, with current CFO David Weigand retaining the role until a new candidate is found.

In a February 25 filing, Supermicro listed five “deficiencies” and “material weaknesses” it had identified in its internal control over financial reporting. These included issues with IT systems supporting the company’s financial reporting process; a failure to address the segregation of staff duties; and a lack of documentation over manual journal entries.
