Crusoe, the industry’s first vertically integrated AI infrastructure provider, announced the opening of its European headquarters in Dublin and plans to hire approximately 100 people over the next three years.

Crusoe’s new European headquarters will allow the company to deepen its customer and partner relationships across the region. In December of 2023, the company announced its first data centre in Europe, located in Iceland. Powered by geothermal energy, the 100% renewable energy data centre continues to support AI workloads for customers across Europe. 

Chase Lochmiller, CEO and co-founder, Crusoe, said: “Establishing our European headquarters in Dublin marks another milestone in Crusoe’s global strategy. Dublin’s reputation as a world-class technology hub, and its exceptional talent pool, makes it the perfect location to forge stronger connections with our European customers and partners.” 

Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment Peter Burke said: “The news that Crusoe AI will establish their European HQ in Dublin, with the creation of 100 jobs, is very welcome. Cloud infrastructure plays a vital role in Ireland’s digital and sustainable future by serving as both a critical enabler of AI technology and a potential catalyst for renewable energy adoption. This announcement is a testament to the skilled technology workforce and thriving AI innovation ecosystem here. Our National AI Strategy AI – Here for Good, which was refreshed in November, sets out the Government’s intention to harness trustworthy, person-centred AI for our collective economic and societal good.”

Michael Lohan, CEO of IDA Ireland, said: ‘’Crusoe’s announcement today of plans for 100 jobs in Ireland, as part of establishing their European Headquarters in Dublin is great news and a great vote of confidence in the skilled workforce available here. AI will be a key focus on our upcoming new strategy in IDA Ireland, so I am delighted to see companies like Crusoe join our technology ecosystem here.’’
