Questions
How is this different from a Google search or a LinkedIn list?
This is curated, structured and verified intelligence - not a raw search result. Every profile covers the specific data centre mandate, deal parameters, ticket sizes and key contacts in a consistent format you can act on immediately. It would take weeks to manually compile this information to this standard.
How current is the data?
This is the 2026 Edition, researched and compiled in mid-2026. Mandates, AUM figures and key contacts reflect the most recently available public information at time of publication.
What format is the report?
A downloadable PDF delivered instantly after purchase. Formatted for screen reading and print.
Is this useful if I'm raising smaller amounts - under $50M?
The report covers a range of lenders - from institutional asset managers deploying $100M+ to specialist equipment finance providers who operate from $1M upward. Both are included across the 35 profiles.
