News | Blackstone to launch publicly traded company for data center acquisitions

Blackstone, the world’s largest alternative asset manager, plans to launch a publicly traded company to acquire data centers, aiming to become a leading investor in AI infrastructure. This initiative will offer “mom-and-pop” investors a way to invest in AI-related assets and will initially target sovereign wealth funds and other institutions to raise tens of billions of dollars. The focus will be on acquiring existing, leased data centers rather than new developments.
