    CVC DIF to acquire Frankfurt colocation operator firstcolo

    CVC DIF has agreed to acquire a significant majority stake in firstcolo, a Frankfurt-based colocation data centre operator, from Cube Infrastructure Managers through its DIF Value Add IV fund, with closing expected by end of September 2026. firstcolo operates two fully-utilised facilities in Frankfurt and is developing FRA7, a new 24 MW gross capacity data centre in Rosbach within the Frankfurt metropolitan region, with power supply secured and firm tenant commitments in place. The company serves over 350 enterprise customers with colocation, dedicated cloud hardware, cloud, connectivity and managed services; its existing management team will remain in place. CVC DIF's investment targets high-quality colocation assets in supply-constrained European markets and will support firstcolo's planned expansion across Frankfurt and other German data centre markets.
