The news: AirTrunk has acquired India-based data centre developer Lumina CloudInfra, adding an additional 600 megawatts of planned capacity and future development potential of up to USD5 billion ($6.99 billion).
The context: The Lumina CloudInfra platform will still continue to be supported by capital investments from Blackstone and CPPIB. It is advancing three data centre projects in Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad.
Following the acquisition, AirTrunk will have more than 3GW of operating and planned capacity across 20 data centre campuses in Australia, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Hong Kong and India.
What they said: “India is one of the largest and fastest growing markets for hyperscale and AI infrastructure worldwide, and expanding in this market is a significant milestone for AirTrunk’s broader APAC strategy,” AirTrunk CEO and founder Robin Khuda said.
“By acquiring Lumina CloudInfra, we are uniquely positioned to deliver the scale, speed, and performance our customers need as they expand across the APAC region.”
