Jay Park , Founder and Chief Development Officer at Digital Edge , explains how the company ensures sustainability stays at the forefront of operations
Digital Edge is a company on a determined mission to bridge the digital divide across Asia , taking worldclass infrastructure in the form of data centres to all four corners of the continent , including developing and developed markets .
Some , like Japan and South Korea , are well positioned in this space , but nations including Indonesia , the Philippines , and India lag significantly behind in many key areas .
Digital Edge is , therefore , working round the clock to close the gap , primarily by establishing state-of-the-art , energyefficient data centres .
Since 2020 , the organisation has acquired , built and now operates data centres in China , Indonesia , Japan , South Korea and the Philippines , while more are under construction in India .
It also offers interconnection and fibre services to enable customers to access a broader digital ecosystem .
Backed by Stonepeak , a leading international alternative investment firm that has made a US $ 1bn capital commitment , Digital Edge is well on the way to establishing a market-leading data centre platform .
Growth over the past four years has been exponential , to the extent that the business now has 17 data centres in six markets and more than 450 employees spread across
