ESR, CloudHQ forge JV to build data centre campus in Japan

The data centre will deliver 130 MW of data centre capacity over three phases.

ESR and CloudHQ have entered into a joint venture to build, fit out, and operate ESR’s US$2b Cosmosquare Data Centre campus in Osaka, Japan.

The data centre campus will deliver 130 MW of data centre capacity over three phases, OS1, OS2, and OS3.

OS1 is ESR’s first data centre facility in Japan and will be ready for service in June. Once fully fitted out, OS1 will provide customers with 25 MW of data centre capacity.

“ESR’s deep local real estate knowledge combined with CloudHQ’s engineering expertise will make this a powerful partnership going forward. This joint venture will enable us to better serve our clients in Japan and across the Asia-Pacific region, ensuring they have access to the highest quality data centre infrastructure and services,” Hossein Fateh, founder and CEO of CloudHQ said.

ESR plans to seize the growth opportunity in Japan amidst surging demand for cloud services from the manufacturing, automotive, financial services, healthcare, and government sectors.

ESR’s other data centre developments in Japan include previously announced campuses in both Keihana and Minoh City, Osaka, as well as Ariake, Tokyo.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
