What happened
AI infrastructure startup Runware plans to mass-produce modular AI data centers on an assembly line at a new factory in Romania, aiming to produce nearly 1 gigawatt of capacity per month by 2028. The prefabricated Sonic Inference Pods use closed-loop liquid cooling and are designed to be installed and brought online within 48 hours. Runware has raised over $60 million to date and claims $1 billion in committed customer interest for its modular compute units.
