Ownership and Investment

Securing future investment is part of our corporate development and strategy.

In addition to designing, building and operating data centres, securing future investment has also formed an important part of our corporate development and strategy.

Colt DCS is part of Colt Group Holdings Ltd, which is wholly-owned through entities affiliated with FMR, LLC.

This means that we are financially secure with zero debt and a low cost of capital and equity. As a result, our ownership allows us to make strategic investments to remain technologically and operationally competitive in the rapidly growing global data centre market.

Joint Ventures

We have two active joint ventures operational in the APAC region. For Colt DCS, these partnerships create avenues for new development opportunities and provide market access to local expertise and market intelligence. For our customers, these partnerships provide available IT capacity in desired locations, accompanied with a customer experience that is second-to-none.
