Bridge Data Centres (Bridge DC) has secured US$2.8 billion in senior secured bank financing to fuel its data centre expansion – one of the largest-ever bank facilities for pan-Asian data centre operators.
The financing, underwritten by a consortium of international and cross-regional banks, signals confidence in Bridge DC’s expansion strategy to meet soaring demand for Gen AI and cloud infrastructure across the region.
Following a year of unprecedented growth at Bridge DC, the Bain Capital backed company will leverage the funds to accelerate development of hyperscale campuses in high-growth markets including Malaysia, Thailand and beyond.
“This financing milestone underscores strong market confidence in Bridge Data Centre’s leadership, underpinned by record contracted capacity growth,” said Eric Fan, President, Bridge Data Centres.
Bridge DC’s expansion is further bolstered by Bain Capital’s cross-regional data center platforms in the US, Europe and China, ensuring seamless support for global hyperscalers.
“Bridge Data Centres has consistently demonstrated its ability to execute on its ambitious growth strategy, delivering world-class data centre solutions that meet the rapidly evolving needs of hyperscalers driven by generative AI,” said Drew Chen, Partner, Bain Capital.
“This landmark financing facility is a testament to the strength of Bridge DC’s business growth trajectory. Bain Capital is proud to support Bridge DC as it continues to expand its footprint and consolidate its position as a leader in APAC’s digital infrastructure landscape.”
