DartPoints, an owner and operator of edge colocation data centers, announced that it has signed definitive agreements to acquire Immedion. Immedion is a provider of colocation, cloud, and managed services with eight data centers in seven markets through South Carolina, North Carolina, Ohio and Indiana. This acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.
When it closes, the Immedion acquisition furthers the DartPoints strategy revealed in August 2020 and reinforced last November with the acquisition of Ohio-based Metro Data Centers. The strategy is to build and acquire edge interconnection and colocation facilities throughout the Southwest, Southeast, Upper Midwest, and Mid-Atlantic regions. It’s a strategy focused on delivering lower cost, high-performance solutions in tier two-to-four markets, which DartPoints says are currently underserved.
“We are excited about the combined opportunities Immedion’s colocation facilities bring to DartPoints,” said Scott Willis, CEO of DartPoints. “The team at Immedion has built a great company. This acquisition is yet another example of how we are delivering on our strategy to improve regional interconnection, particularly to markets that need it most.”
