YORK, Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmark
Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NMRK) ("Newmark" or "the Company"), a leading
commercial real estate advisor and service provider to large
institutional investors, global corporations, and other owners and
occupiers, announces it served as strategic advisor to Blue Owl
Capital, Inc., Chirisa Technology Parks and PowerHouse Data Centers
in a joint venture ("JV") worth up to $5
billion to develop large-scale AI/ HPC data centers across
the U.S. Newmark's Co-President of Global Debt & Structured
Finance Jordan
Roeschlaub and Brent
Mayo, who leads Newmark's Data Center & Digital
Infrastructure Capital Markets team, acted as strategic advisor for
the JV.
As the first stage of the partnership, the JV will provide
capital to develop turnkey AI/HPC data center assets. The initial
120 megawatts of capacity under the program will be delivered for
CoreWeave in 2025 and 2026 at Chirisa's 350-acre campus near
Richmond, Virginia. Further
deployments in the pipeline include brownfield and greenfield
campuses in New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Kentucky and Nevada.
"This joint venture represents an innovative and flexible
capital solution allowing for the rapid development of new AI/HPC
capacity across the United
States," said Roeschlaub. "As demand for data centers
continues to grow, we anticipate that investors and developers will
continue to show interest in similar projects."
Newmark Research reported in January that the data center
industry is growing rapidly, fueled by expanding needs of
hyperscalers, AI and HPC users and large enterprises. The increased
demand has spurred a surge in new development and land banking for
future development, with data center construction pipelines hitting
new all-time highs in 2024.
