"Antin is a European infrastructure investor with offices in Paris, London, and New York. The company focuses on investments in sectors such as digital infrastructure, energy, transportation, and social services. In the digital domain, Antin has previously invested in data center and connectivity companies in various European countries, including a regional data center platform in the United Kingdom. This has given the company experience in scaling up colocation and network services within regulated and competitive markets."
"Since NorthC was formed in 2019, the organization has significantly strengthened its position in Northwest Europe. Under the leadership of CEO Alexandra Schless, the company expanded into Germany and Switzerland and achieved growth through both new locations and targeted acquisitions. NorthC now serves more than 1,600 customers in sectors such as cloud and IT services, telecommunications, government, financial services, industry, transportation, and healthcare."
Antin will acquire NorthC through its fifth Flagship fund, with completion expected in the first half of 2026 after regulatory approvals. NorthC manages 25 colocation sites in the Netherlands, Germany, and Switzerland and has more than 140 MW of secured grid capacity to support future growth. DWS, part of Deutsche Bank, is the selling party and had held NorthC in its infrastructure portfolio since NorthC's creation in 2019 through a merger of two Dutch operators. Antin is active across digital infrastructure and has prior European data center and connectivity investments that provide scaling experience. NorthC expanded under CEO Alexandra Schless and serves over 1,600 customers across multiple sectors. Antin identifies further colocation growth driven by IT outsourcing, broader cloud adoption, and rising data processing needs.
