The other mission is to boost Colony\u2019s ongoing digital transformation.

The Vantage management team, led by President\/CEO Sureel Choksi, will continue to manage and operate these assets, while also developing additional data centers throughout North America and Europe.<\/p>\n<h2>Big moves, big money<\/h2>\n<p>Earlier this year, Vantage agreed to acquire Next Generation Data, Europe\u2019s largest data center, in Wales, for an undisclosed amount. The deal capped a series of European acquisitions that included Luxembourg-based data center developer Etix Everywhere and, in separate deals, sites on which to develop hyperscale data center campuses in Berlin, Milan, Warsaw and Zurich. The whole package of acquisitions was valued around $2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>In a prepared statement, Colony Capital CEO Marc Ganzi noted that the company is continuing to build momentum in its strategic transformation to focus on digital infrastructure. That pivot took a major stride last summer, when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/colony-capitals-barrack-to-step-back-after-325m-merger\/\">Colony bought Digital Bridge Holdings<\/a> for $325 million.<\/p>\n<p>The two companies were already connected, having two months prior jointly formed Digital Colony Partners, a $4 billion fund intended to pursue opportunities in digital infrastructure. As part of all this, Ganzi was to succeed Colony\u2019s Thomas Barrack as CEO, while Barrack would retain his position as executive chairman.<\/p>\n<p>Before COVID-19, the data center sector in Europe was thriving, especially in the largest markets, with very substantial absorption and preleasing, according to a May report from CBRE. And now the pandemic is highlighting how crucial data centers are to businesses and individuals.<\/p>\n<p>CBRE predicted that for the most part, leasing negotiations already under way will go to completion, and although new construction could become problematic, development pipelines will generally move forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valued at $3.5 billion, the new strategic partnership will both boost Vantage\u2019s ability to expand its portfolio and help accelerate Colony\u2019s reorientation toward digital infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":882,"featured_media":1004461966,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21755,21743,21808,16,21783,23891,21742],"tags":[32789,33283,46478,43829,49705,38050],"class_list":["post-1004461948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-data-centers","category-deals","category-featured","category-international","category-investment","category-national","category-latest","tag-cbre","tag-colony-capital-inc","tag-marc-ganzi","tag-sureel-choksi","tag-vantage","tag-vantage-data-centers"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
