Safanad Supports CentralColo Affiliate to Acquire 200,000-Square Foot Data Center in Northern Virginia

Represents Safanad's second data center investment

NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Safanad Limited ("Safanad"), a global principal investment firm, is pleased to announce it has acquired its second data center operation in partnership with Industry Capital.

Today, the connectivity-rich data center features 9 megawatts of capacity for anchor enterprise customers that include some of the world's largest hyper scale cloud and network providers, as well as government organizations. Total occupancy of the project exceeds 75% and CentralColo plans to add an additional 4 megawatts over the next twelve to eighteen months. CentralColo has already introduced the first new customer to the data center, Atlantic Metro/InfoRelay, a leading cloud, network, managed services, and managed hosting provider.

In addition to the proximity of the project to Ashburn which affords the occupants tremendously low latency and multiple connectivity options, the site has the added advantage of having a multitude of backbone network connections which are diverse to the Ashburn network. The data center is currently connected with 14 premiere telecommunication and fiber carriers with others expressing interest in establishing a presence in the facility based on CentralColo's plans for additional enterprise, government and service provider customers coming online.

CentralColo is an operator of data centers offering both hybrid IT and colocation services to a global client base. In August 2016, Safanad and San Francisco based investment firm, Industry Capital, announced a partnership to invest in CentralColo. CentralColo's first facility is in the heart of Silicon Valley, providing hosting and connectivity services to a broad array of customers. CentralColo is positioned to address the needs of both mission critical IT loads, cloud services/solutions and high density compute requirements such as data analytics, research and development, testing, warehousing, and staging platforms.
