'KKR, Bain Capital Plow Into Asia Data Centers on AI, Cloud Boom'

 

  • KKR sees room to invest $1 billion in data-center projects
  • Asia’s fragmented market, regulation, ESG pose challenges

Asia is becoming the latest hunting ground for global investors in data centers, as companies from KKR & Co. to Bain Capital bet on the region’s growing computing and data storage needs following an artificial intelligence boom.

Like in the US, Asia is seeing a surge in demand for data centers as giants like Amazon.com Inc. and Alphabet Inc.’s Google boost cloud services, the recent generative AI wave fuels data and capacity requirements, and the region’s growing population spurs storage needs.
