European AI infrastructure and software provider Subgen AI has signed a cloud services agreement with Alibaba Cloud Netherlands.

Under the deal, Subgen AI and its clients and partners will have access to Alibaba Cloud’s advanced infrastructure, AI toolsets, multilingual technologies, and international data center footprint while remaining in compliance with European regulations.

According to Subgen AI, it will also help to expand its "Serenity Star AI" platform across new geographies and customer segments.

“This agreement with Alibaba Cloud Netherlands is an important milestone in Subgen AI’s long-term strategy to give Serenity Star customers better opportunities to scale AI,” said Lorenzo Sarratosa, Subgen AI’s CEO. “By partnering with one of the world’s leading cloud and AI infrastructure providers, we strengthen our ability to deliver secure, high-performance AI solutions to customers worldwide while building a more efficient and scalable foundation for growth.”

Subgen AI will be able to speed up deployment without needing a heavy upfront infrastructure investment.

Subgen AI, based in Sweden, was listed on the Nasdaq First North Stockholm exchange in November 2025. It is unclear if the company operates any of its own data centers or hardware. In December 2025, it partnered with Microsoft, bringing Microsoft capabilities to the Serenity Star platform.

Alibaba Cloud has been expanding its international footprint rapidly, revealing in September 2025 that it planned to launch eight new data center locations in the next year, including its first data centers in Brazil, France, and the Netherlands.

Earlier this week, reports emerged that Alibaba was considering increasing its capex spend on AI and cloud infrastructure to $69 billion by February 2028.
