The company was reportedly in talks to raise funding at a $7.5 billion valuation as of March 2026.\n\nRunpod supports more than 30 different GPU types globally and charges on a per-second billing model.\n\nNebius partnered with NVIDIA on March 11, 2026, to deploy more than 5 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems by the end of 2030. The company is investing approximately $2.3 billion to construct UK-based capacity targeting 65 megawatts by 2027, using NVIDIA’s Blackwell Ultra infrastructure.\n\n**Disclosure:** This article was edited by Editorial Team.
