Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Today Announces the Completion of Belgian Data Centre Acquisitions
LONDON: Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Limited (‘CORD’), the operationally focused investor specialising in digital infrastructure and managed by Cordiant Capital, is pleased to announce that the acquisition of a 47.5% economic (50% voting) interest in DCU Invest NV (‘DCU’, or the ‘Company’) and the associated acquisition by DCU of the entire share capital of Datacenter United Brussels NV have both closed. Cordiant Capital is continuing to explore investment alongside the CORD by a separate Cordiant-managed fund.
The closing of these transactions thereby creates a leading wholesale and retail data centre infrastructure provider in Belgium, operating an extensive network of 13 Tier III and Tier IV facilities strategically positioned across the country. With a comprehensive footprint spanning Brussels, Antwerp, Ghent, and Bruges, DCU will have a strong presence in Belgium’s key economic hubs.
DCU’s regional strength and presence in Brussels delivers unparalleled coverage and capability in the Belgian market, supported by an experienced, founder-led management team with a proven track record of operational excellence.
The Company’s portfolio encompasses 13MW of IT capacity across 11 locations. This substantial infrastructure network serves a diverse client base, from blue-chip enterprises and government institutions to corporate organisations seeking reliable, high-performance data centre solutions.
Strategically located at the crossroads of Europe’s major data centre markets – Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin (FLAP-D) – these facilities offer optimal connectivity and strategic advantages for businesses requiring robust digital infrastructure. The prime location, combined with extensive national coverage, uniquely positions the Company to serve both domestic and international clients seeking a strong presence in the heart of Europe.
As digital infrastructure demands continue to grow across Europe, the Company stands ready to support evolving needs with robust, scalable, and reliable data centre solutions.
Steven Marshall and Benn Mikula, Co-Founders of Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Management, said:
It has been a pleasure collaborating with TINC, as well as DCU’s experienced CEO Friso Haringsma, to complete this transaction,
Cordiant is thrilled with the completion of our latest acquisition, which perfectly demonstrates Cordiant’s ‘Buy, Build and Grow’ strategy in action.
“We’ve capitalised on a unique opportunity to strengthen the company’s market position and create a market leader in retail and wholesale colocation. DCU is now well-positioned and adequately capitalised to accelerate growth in this rapidly evolving market.”
