The OVHcloud Startup Program provides European and international AI startups with up to EUR 100,000 in free cloud credits on Europe's leading sovereign cloud infrastructure. The program specifically offers access to NVIDIA A100 and L40S GPU instances hosted entirely within EU data centers, making it uniquely valuable for AI companies that need GDPR-compliant compute resources not subject to the U.S. CLOUD Act.
OVHcloud implements technical and organizational measures to protect data hosted by EU-based customers against interference from authorities outside the European Union. Beyond credits, participants receive one-on-one support from a regional manager, personalized technical guidance for architecture and scaling, and access to OVHcloud's partner ecosystem.
Critically, OVHcloud takes no equity in exchange for the credits — a significant differentiator from some accelerator-style compute programs. The program supports AI training, inference, generative AI workloads, and 3D rendering with Ada Lovelace GPU performance. This is one of the few large-scale GPU credit programs specifically designed for data sovereignty compliance.
