Inside Cordiant's Belgium data centre deal with Hagai Shilo and Joel Ntamirira

Proactive - Interviews for investors

Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Ltd managing director Hagai Shilo and vice president Joel Ntamirira joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more details of the company’s recent acquisition of a 50% stake in Datacenter United (DCU), a data centre operator in Belgium. This strategic investment aligns with Cordiant's "buy, build, and grow" philosophy, combining the strengths of Datacentre United with the assets of Proximus, the Belgian telecom incumbent. Together, they aim to create Belgium’s largest retail and wholesale co-location data centre platform, with combined revenues of $40 million and EBITDA of $15 million. Ntamirira explained that by merging these assets, the new entity will fill geographical gaps in coverage, offering a strong national presence. Shilo added that the acquisition marks a critical diversification step for Cordiant, both geographically and within the data centre sector. Highlighting a growth potential in Belgium, Cordiant plans to deploy growth capital expenditure to expand existing facilities and invest in brownfield and greenfield sites to meet high market demand. The interview also emphasised Cordiant’s long-term strategy, supported by £250 million in liquidity. Shilo expressed confidence that this disciplined, growth-oriented approach can enhance shareholder value.
