DMG also announces it has made an investment in Atomic47 Labs Inc. (“Atomic47”), an applied AI company and systems integrator based in Kelowna, British Columbia.

Sheldon Bennett, DMG’s CEO commented, “As DMG is committed to building infrastructure for secure, sovereign AI infrastructure in Canada, this investment represents an important step to help build it from the application layer down.” Karen Olsson, Atomic47’s CEO added, “DMG’s investment is helping Atomic47 accelerate our evolution into a platform-first AI company. It gives us the capital and infrastructure foundation to turn the systems we have built for complex, high-consequence environments into scalable Canadian platforms.
