DigitalBridge Closes US$11.7 Bln Digital Infrastructure Fund

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 20 (Bernama) -- DigitalBridge Group Inc (DigitalBridge) announced the successful close of DigitalBridge Partners III (DBP III), its third value-added digital infrastructure fund, securing US$11.7 billion in total capital commitments. (US$1=RM4.14)

The close includes over US$7.2 billion in fund commitments and US$4.5 billion in limited partner (LP) co-investment commitments, highlighting strong investor confidence in the firm’s digital infrastructure strategy and differentiated operating model.

More than 65 per cent of the fund commitments came from existing investors in the DigitalBridge Partners fund series, alongside new LPs from the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, and North America. The robust co-investment participation underscores DigitalBridge’s ability to partner closely with investors to scale capital into high-quality opportunities, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI) and hyperscale data centres.

DigitalBridge Chief Executive Officer, Marc Ganzi in a statement said the fund represents the next stage in the company’s evolution as a leading digital infrastructure investment platform.

“With strong fund commitments and meaningful co-investment from our LPs, this capital formation milestone positions us to scale into the opportunities we have been building toward—in hyperscale data centres, AI-enabling infrastructure, and the power and connectivity assets that underpin them,” he said.

Meanwhile, DigitalBridge Chief Commercial and Strategy Officer, Kevin Smithen added: “The fund is already deploying capital into next-generation platforms where we identified growth potential ahead of the market, including hyperscale data centres, fibre, and tower infrastructure.

“DigitalBridge is continuing to focus on what we do best: delivering value for our investors through proprietary sourcing, operator-driven value creation, and disciplined execution at scale.”

DBP III has already built a well-diversified portfolio that includes Vantage Data Centers North America, Yondr Group, Orange Barrel Media, FiberNow, and JTOWER.

These initial investments reflect the firm’s disciplined execution and alignment with the fund’s high-conviction strategy—investing at scale in proprietary opportunities where DigitalBridge has deep domain expertise and the ability to unlock value through active ownership and strategic growth.
