Singapore-headquartered ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC) invested $4.2b (US$3.2b) to expand its data centre capacity in India by 550MW, tripling data capacity to meet the country’s demand over the next five to six years.

This investment adds to STT GDC India’s total combined capacity of over 318MW, with about 1,000 customers that include Fortune 500 companies. 

"Today, the India digital economy's growth rate of almost three times overall GDP growth is putting the country on pace to achieve a $1.3t (USD1t) digital economy by 2027-2028. At STT GDC, we want to play an active role in co-investing and contributing to India's long-term success by investing in the foundational digital infrastructure that will help further accelerate Digital India," said Bruno Lopez, President and Group Chief Executive Officer at ST Telemedia Global Data Centres.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
