DigitalBridge Group, a global alternative asset manager dedicated to investing in digital infrastructure, today announced it has reached an agreement to acquire Yondr Group, a global developer and operator of hyperscale data centres, through one of its managed investment funds.
Yondr has established itself as a key player in the digital infrastructure sector, addressing the complex data centre capacity demands of the world’s largest technology companies through the development and operation of sustainable data centres worldwide.
With a diverse portfolio of campuses, Yondr is well-positioned to meet the soaring demand for advanced data processing capabilities driven by ongoing digital transformation, the shift to cloud solutions, and the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). The company has more than 420MW of capacity committed to hyperscalers, with significant additional land to support a total potential capacity of over 1GW.
The DigitalBridge Fund’s strategic investment will drive the development of cutting-edge, sustainable data centres, backed by long-term, stable revenue streams from investment-grade clients.
“Yondr’s assets and strong relationships with leading hyperscale clients align with DigitalBridge’s vision to support the future of digital infrastructure,” says Jon Mauck, Senior Managing Director at DigitalBridge. “Yondr enhances our existing data centre portfolio and strengthens our ability to support hyperscalers. Together, we are well-positioned to capitalise on the increasing demand for hyperscale data centres – fuelled by AI, cloud computing, and the ongoing digital transformation across industries.”
Yondr will continue to operate as an independent company within DigitalBridge’s portfolio, leveraging DigitalBridge’s support, expertise and experience. This partnership will enhance Yondr’s ability to serve its clients more effectively while accelerating global expansion efforts.
The deal is expected to close in early 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
