Putting Singapore on the data centre world stage

THE hype around data centres (DCs) as a viable alternative asset class has come under focus in recent years. Exponential growth of data from the heavy use of technology has led to increased demand for land sites for data centres across Singapore.

Investors are generally interested in two options: Brownfield sites and greenfield sites.

Brownfield sites are land that was previously used for other industrial purposes before being considered for building data centres. In contrast, greenfield sites are previously undeveloped land.
