Northern Data exits Lancium stake for $30M as investors circle $14B valuation

What's the deal? Northern DataDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → Group has sold its equity stake in Lancium for $30 million, exiting a position it first took in 2020 at a cost of €1.4 million ($1.7 million). The move comes as Lancium draws separate investor interest in a minority stake at a $14 billion valuation.

Why now? Northern Data said the sale reflects a focus on capital allocation and its core business in AI and high-performance computing. The disposal turns a modest 2020 investment into a sizeable return.
