The story

Vantage Data Centers is a wholesale hyperscale data center provider backed by DigitalBridge, operating large-scale campuses across North America, EMEA, and APAC for cloud providers, AI enterprises, and large tech businesses. The company has pursued aggressive capital markets activity — green loans, revolving credit facilities, and pioneering asset-backed securitizations — to fund rapid campus development driven by AI and cloud demand. Vantage is not a fintech or embedded finance company; its finance function is oriented around real-asset financing and global operations rather than offering financial products to end users.
