G42 and e& to turn Khazna Data Centers into one of the Middle East’s largest data centre providers

Following the binding agreement between e& (formerly known as Etisalat Group) and G42 to merge their data centre offering late 2021, Khazna Data Centers is now operating the 12 new joint data centres network, making it one of the UAE and Middle East’s largest data centre providers.

The strategic partnership between G42 and e& makes Khazna a data centre powerhouse effectively delivering services to partners, customers and users alike. The move will also support the creation of a digital ecosystem in the UAE and beyond.

“We are pleased to see our partnership with e& coming to fruition with the consolidation of our respective data centre assets under Khazna Data Center,” said Peng Xiao, Group CEO at G42. “Over the years, Khazna has become synonymous with deploying and operating the best-in-class data centre infrastructure. We are confident that this next phase in its growth will help attract new global players to the UAE, contributing to the development of the local and regional digital ecosystem and economies.”

“The completion of the deal with G42 will further enhance our capabilities to design and deliver infrastructure in line with our vision to be a leading digital enabler that transforms enterprises, governments and societies,” said Salvador Anglada, CEO, e&. “This new journey will allow us to leverage our investments and expertise to deliver next-generation digital infrastructure that will benefit our customer segments.”
