This acquisition further expands AtlasEdge’s coverage and accelerates time to market in several new geographies, as well as establishing a collaboration between AtlasEdge and Colt Data Centre Services, with Colt Technology Services becoming an anchor tenant across multiple facilities. This network-neutral colocation strategy enables AtlasEdge’s customers to optimise their network routes, minimise their bandwidth costs and take advantage of the wide community of cloud, content, technology and enterprise companies present in the facilities.
The portfolio includes data centers in key tier one and tier two markets across Europe, including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Brussels, Copenhagen, Hamburg, London, Madrid, Milan, Paris and Zurich.
“We are delighted to welcome these sites into our expanding portfolio,” commented Josh Joshi, Executive Chairman, AtlasEdge. “We are tapping into an exciting and emerging market where real time data traffic is growing and compute is gravitating to the edge of the network.

Niclas Sanfridsson, CEO, Colt DCS, added, “Demand for data storage and cloud capabilities has never been higher, and so is the need for businesses to scale and find capacity. By restructuring and focusing on our hyperscale facilities, we can meet our customers’ needs on demand with true scalability and efficiency, while meeting their sustainability targets. We are committed to ensuring a sustainable business model for the future and this latest deal will improve the returns on investment across our portfolio, which can then be reinvested into the business.”
