PAG Real Estate to launch new digital infrastructure company

PAG Real Estate, with Kris Kumar, a globally recognized pioneering figure in digital infrastructure investment, has launched a regional platform to capitalize on the rapidly growing demand for digital infrastructure in Asia.

The company will address the burgeoning demand for experienced skill sets and risk-managed capital allocation in the acquisition, development, ownership and operation of digital infrastructure assets. The company will focus on colocation, cloud, hyperscale and enterprise data centers as well as network and fiber assets in the Asia Pacific region and will leverage PAG’s experience in data center assets and land holdings.

Kumar will assume the role of chairman of this company. Kumar has served as the founding executive and regional head of Asia Pacific for Digital Realty; the founder and CEO of Bridge Data Centers; and the vice chairman of Chindata Group Holdings post the merger of Bridge Data Centers with Chindata, which listed on the NASDAQ (CD)
