The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (Adia) has deepened its exposure to US-based Vantage Data Centers with a new commitment aimed at driving the company’s Asia-Pacific expansion.
The $1.6 billion investment, made alongside Singapore’s GIC—both existing shareholders—underscores continued confidence in Vantage’s growth strategy. Details of Adia’s earlier stake in the company were not disclosed.
The capital will enable Vantage, headquartered in Denver, Colorado, to acquire a more than 300-megawatt hyperscale data centre campus at Sedenak Tech Park in Malaysia. The project taps into the rapid digital infrastructure demand across Asia-Pacific, fuelled by accelerating adoption of artificial intelligence.
Jeremy Deutsch, president of Vantage Data Centers, Apac, noted that the addition of the Johor campus will raise the company’s regional capacity to 1 gigawatt.
Khadem AlRemeithi, executive director of the infrastructure department at Adia, said the investment aligns with the fund’s strategy of building infrastructure that supports digitalisation. The transaction and campus acquisition are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals.
Adia has been steadily expanding its digital infrastructure portfolio. In 2022, it partnered with Singapore’s SC Capital Partners to launch a $2 billion data centre investment platform.
