Oracle is set to invest $3 billion in Germany and the Netherlands over the next five years to enhance its cloud and AI infrastructure. The investment will be split with $2 billion allocated to Germany and $1 billion for the Netherlands. This move aims to meet the increasing demand for cloud computing and AI services, allowing businesses and governments to modernise applications and leverage AI innovations.
The investment targets Germany's industrial sector, especially automotive manufacturing, for AI-driven supply chain optimisation. It also aims to capitalise on the Netherlands' fintech ecosystem by offering secure cloud services. This aligns Oracle with other tech giants expanding their European presence to compete in the AI infrastructure market, which is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2030.
This investment could help address tech talent shortages in both countries by creating job opportunities and supporting specialised skills development in AI and cloud technologies. Oracle's increased capital spending is expected to surpass $25 billion in fiscal year 2026, primarily directed towards data centre infrastructure for AI.
