- Mawson Infrastructure Group Inc. (NASDAQ: MIGI), a U.S.-based digital infrastructure provider, has entered into a significant agreement to supply artificial intelligence and high-performance computing (AI/HPC) colocation services.
The contract with BE Global Development Limited involves an initial provision of 20 megawatts (MW) of infrastructure, with a six-year term and a potential cumulative revenue of approximately $285 million.
The initial 20 MW capacity is slated for deployment in the first quarter of 2025 and is expected to yield around $92 million in potential revenue for Mawson within the first two years. The agreement also includes a non-binding letter of intent to potentially expand the collaboration to 144 MW, which could significantly increase Mawson's AI and HPC colocation capacity and services.
According to Rahul Mewawalla, CEO and President of Mawson, this agreement not only demonstrates the company's capability in digital infrastructure but also strategically positions it in the growing AI and HPC market. He anticipates the overall AI and HPC infrastructure market to expand to over $200 billion by 2030.
BE Global Development Limited's CEO, Sath Ganesarajah, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, highlighting plans to deploy NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) GPUs, including H100s, to support the growth of innovative AI/HPC customers. Ganesarajah also noted the potential for expanding their partnership with Mawson, given the rapid growth expected in the AI/HPC sector.
This move into AI and HPC colocation services is a complement to Mawson's existing digital assets operations, aiming to create a stable, recurring revenue stream with high margins and additional growth opportunities.
Mawson recently saw the departure of Craig Hibbard from his role as chief development officer, effective February 6, 2025. The company stated that the departure was due to personal reasons and not related to any disagreements with the company's management or operational results.
Mawson also recently appointed Kaliste Saloom as its General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, effective June 28, 2024. Saloom, previously acting as Corporate Secretary, is now officially taking on the role with an annual salary of $225,000. His responsibilities include receiving a performance bonus and an annual grant of restricted stock units valued at $50,000, subject to the discretion of the company and its board.

According to InvestingPro data, Mawson has a market capitalization of $19.1 million, indicating its size relative to competitors in the sector.
