The new JV will operate under the brand name Digital Connexion: A Brookfield, Jio and Digital Realty Company. It builds on the foundation laid by BAM Digital Realty, by including RIL, India’s largest private sector company, as a partner. Each partner will own one-third of the joint venture. Digital Connexion expects to initially execute on the development of data center campuses on existing strategic land parcels it owns in Chennai and Mumbai. Data centers developed in India by the JV will leverage Digital Realty’s data center platform, design and operating procedures, highly-repeatable Pervasive Data Center Architecture approach and relationships with global customers. Digital Connexion will have a dedicated management team in India, with leadership oversight from Digital Realty, Brookfield and RIL.
