Service Overview

As primary business, the Company is in the business as a provider of data centre real estate and infrastructure development, specialising in leasing and maintenance. As a data centre facility provider, the Company is responsible for owning, developing, leasing, and maintaining physical infrastructure, ensuring that data centres operate seamlessly and efficiently. Its core responsibilities include building construction and maintenance, covering site selection, architectural design, construction, and facility management, along with the integration of mechanical, electrical (M&E), and security systems.

Additionally, its asset-backed investments provide capital security, and its recurring revenue model ensures sustainable business growth with lower exposure to technical complexities associated with direct data centre operations.
