Zenium Technology Partners (www.zeniumtechnology.com) is delighted to announce that it has secured the backing of Quantum Strategic Partners Ltd, a private investment fund, in order to accelerate the expansion of its global data centre development and investment portfolio.  Quantum now becomes a capital partner with immediate effect.

The first project resulting from the alliance between Zenium Technology Partners (ZTP) and Quantum Strategic Partners Ltd. (QSP) will be a “ground up” data centre development project in Istanbul. Branded ‘Zenium Data Centers Istanbul 1’, the facility will provide approximately 12,000 square metres of raised floor space and is expected to be fully operational in late 2014. ZTP is also poised to advance a number of other global investment and development projects in the next twelve months.

“There is a real need for expertise and capital to combine in order to help transform key assets, businesses or portfolios and to improve operational and financial performance in the long term,” said Franek Sodzawiczny, CEO at ZTP. “What is needed is more equity and know-how, not additional layers of cost and complexity that simply serve to obstruct progress.”
With the financial backing of QSP, ZTP is ideally placed to support companies that want to build, sell or enhance data centre assets. It will focus on providing intelligent investment solutions in parallel with an abundance of industry experience and insights in to market access.

“Establishing this alliance with QSP enables the two teams to work together in order to develop a comprehensive range of bespoke data centre solutions for both established and emerging markets which we believe will bring exciting opportunities to the table. We have also taken the strategic decision to move forward to investigate, and deliver in, new territories, where we believe there is massive potential for new data centres to meet rising demands. We are all highly motivated to make this a success and very much look forward to seeing what impact this game-changing alliance has in the sector,” concluded Sodzawiczny.
