QuadReal and T5 Data Centers Announce Capital Raise to Support Data Center Expansion, Development and Platform Growth to $8 Billion

In today’s digital-first world, robust capital raising and investment in digital infrastructure is not just a competitive advantage—it’s a necessity. As demand for data storage, cloud computing, and AI-driven applications skyrockets, the need for scalable, high-performance data centers has never been greater. 

To support that demand, QuadReal Property Group (QuadReal), a global real estate investment, operating and development company, and T5 Data Centers have expanded their Data Center Platform with an additional $8 billion equity investment to help fund T5’s strategic growth. 

The Platform, initially formed in 2019 and jointly owned by QuadReal and T5 principals, has developed state-of-the-art facilities in strategic U.S. markets, including Silicon Valley, Hillsboro, Chicago, Atlanta and Charlotte, serving Cloud, AI, and Enterprise users.  This new capital raise will help the Platform meet its growing customer demand and support the development of a new Scaled Campus strategy with an ultimate capacity of 5 GW – a key component of T5’s company vision. 

This investment marks a pivotal moment for T5 Data Centers and the industry, positively impacting the next phase of T5’s commitment to fueling the development, construction, and operation of cutting-edge facilities that will power the digital economy for years to come. 

“Digital infrastructure has been a strategic area of conviction for QuadReal since 2019 and we remain very enthusiastic about demand growth, driven by the large installed base of cloud, continued cloud adoption and the advancement of AI,” said Jamie Weber, Head of Americas at QuadReal. “We are excited to leverage our Platform with T5, and their trusted capabilities, to deliver scaled cutting-edge data center solutions to the market.” 

This partnership will continue to address a robust pipeline as sector fundamentals remain strong. Continued investment will deepen the development, acquisition and operating capabilities of T5 Data Centers across the U.S. 

“This additional investment from QuadReal is another step that enables T5 to pursue its ambitious Scaled Campus strategy supplying AI and Cloud-ready data center capacity to the world’s most sophisticated technology companies,” said Pete Marin, President & CEO of T5 Data Centers.

This significant capital infusion underscores the critical role of digital infrastructure in driving innovation, connectivity, and global economic growth.
