Funds managed by Carlyle have agreed to acquire Involta, a data center company focused on hybrid IT and cloud infrastructure, including data center colocation, hybrid cloud, edge, fiber, and related products.
Carlyle will acquire Involta from M/C Partners. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022 and is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Financial details were not disclosed.
Involta owns and operates 12 data center facilities and an in-house 12,000-plus fiber-mile network. These assets, paired with strategic infrastructure services, provide mission-critical IT solutions to businesses across the United States. Carlyle’s capital, resources and expertise will help expand Involta’s operations, which today are located primarily in the Midwest, as well as the Pacific Northwest and Southwestern United States, helping grow the firm’s capabilities for both new and existing customers.
