The Utility of Compute™ – AI infrastructure as dependable, plentiful, and available as electricity, for every organization that needs it.
Volta was founded on a single conviction: compute is infrastructure, and it should be financed, developed, and operated like it.
Ricard Boada spent over a decade leading digital infrastructure at a global asset management firm, where he helped deploy tens of billions of dollars into essential infrastructure assets – data centers and telecom towers – across Europe and North America.
That experience led him to a simple thesis: AI compute has the same characteristics as the infrastructure he spent his career financing – physically standardized, essential, and financeable the way power plants and toll roads are financed, not like a venture-backed startup.
Ricard co-founded Volta with Sofia Gumuzio, a former colleague and one of the sector's leading AI infrastructure investors. Together they assembled a world-class leadership team – senior operators across finance, engineering, product and people – and built Volta faster than any other institution could move.
The name is not an accident. Alessandro Volta invented the first device to produce a steady, continuous electric current – before that, electricity was only understood as a brief, static discharge. He gave the world continuous current. Volta gives the world continuous compute.
