[{"type":"text","content":"HONG KONG, Feb. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 3 E Network Technology Group Limited (Nasdaq: MASK, \"3 E\" or the \"Company\"), a business-to-business (\"B2B\") information technology (\"IT\") business solutions provider advancing toward next-generation artificial intelligence (\"AI\") infrastructure solutions, today announced the strategic positioning of its Mikkeli, Finland project as the Nordic Compute Gateway within its global strategic framework. This designation reflects the Company’s intention to further expand 3 E’s AI infrastructure presence in the Nordic region, leveraging Finland's regional resources to support the development of a global compute scheduling network characterized by geopolitical stability and low-carbon attributes. AI-Native Infrastructure: Reshaping the Compute FoundationAs the demand for generative AI shifts from “general-purpose storage” to “ultra-high-density computing,” traditional data centers may face evolving infrastructure constraints, including limitations in power capacity and power density. In response to these market dynamics in the high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure sector, 3 E is planning to deploy AI-native nodes in the Nordic region adapted for next-generation chip architectures. This initiative aims to enhance the physical infrastructure supporting compute workloads and help address increasing global demand. This development reflects ongoing advancements in physical performance and a strategic evaluation of compute hosting environments, a trend also observed among major global technology companies. Google’s cumulative investment of over €3.5 billion in its Hamina facility, combined with its recently announced €1 billion expansion to support AI-related initiatives, highlights the Nordic region’s favorable power infrastructure and natural cooling conditions. This sustained capital commitment underscores Finland’s role as a stable environment for compute infrastructure investment and provides contextual support for 3 E's strategic planning. However, distinct from the \"hybrid load\" expansions often seen in legacy general-purpose cloud architectures, 3 E’s Mikkeli project is designed with a primary focus on AI-oriented workloads. It is being developed as a greenfield facility to address the heat dissipation and interconnect requirements associated with next-generation GPU clus...
