InfraRed Capital Partners announces launch of Qu Data Centres, a Canadian digital infrastructure platform

InfraRed Capital Partners (InfraRed) is pleased to announce the official launch of Qu Data Centres Limited Partnership (Qu Data Centres, Qu), a Canadian-based digital infrastructure platform. With a portfolio of nine data centers across key Canadian markets, and a comprehensive suite of cloud services, Qu Data Centres is positioned to provide secure, sovereign, and sustainable technology solutions. 

Qu Data Centres’ facilities are located in Calgary, Edmonton, London, Ottawa, and Toronto, with an established national footprint and up to 49MW of capacity that currently serves more than 750 customers. With Canadian data sovereignty and in-country infrastructure at its core, this data center platform is well-positioned to meet the growing demands of enterprise, government, hyperscale, and AI customers.

James Beer, CEO of Qu Data Centres, commented on the launch: “The launch of Qu marks a defining moment for Canadian digital infrastructure. We are uniting the proven operational sophistication of our facilities, and the teams who run them, with a clear mission:

“To propel our clients forward by delivering unquestionably reliable, sovereign infrastructure. Qu is here to power Canadian innovation, today and for the future.

“Our data centers bring together scale, security, and sustainability to create a trusted foundation for enterprises, cloud providers, and government. With a resilient operational platform and significant expansion capacity, we are ready to deliver the reliability and resilience that the Canadian digital economy demands.”

The data centers were acquired from Rogers Communications, who will continue to sell data center services and provide network connectivity into the facilities. 

“We are excited to complete this transaction and launch Qu Data Centres to continue delivering high-quality services to its extensive existing client base, with Rogers continuing to sell data center solutions into the facilities,” said Pilar Banegas, partner at InfraRed Capital Partners. “With significant available capacity and expansion potential, the platform is also well-aligned to meet the needs of Canada’s growing demand for secure and sustainable data center services.”

Qu Data Centres provides a comprehensive range of colocation, cloud, and connectivity solutions supported by strong operational expertise via one of the only fully Canadian leadership teams, and a proven track record in building, integrating, and scaling mission-critical infrastructure.
