Deal brings 12.5MW of hyperscale capacity to Syntys in Qatar Free Zones<\/p>\n
Ooredoo Group and Syntys announced today that Syntys has acquired Q Data QFZ LLC,\u00a0which operates hyperscale data centre facilities in Qatar serving leading cloud and AI customers, with 5MW live and 7.5MW under development.<\/p>\n
The transaction transfers ownership of two Tier III\u2011certified, carrier\u2011neutral facilities within the Qatar Free Zones and brings Syntys\u2019 total live IT capacity in the country to 26MW. The seller is Doha Venture Capital, a subsidiary of Qatar Free Zones Authority.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The acquisition responds to accelerating deployment requirements from hyperscale cloud providers and AI platform operators across the Gulf region, where available capacity remains constrained relative to demand. The transaction supports Qatar\u2019s national digital economy objectives by anchoring this hyperscale infrastructure within a Qatar-headquartered data centre platform focused on mission-critical cloud and AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n
Aziz Aluthman Fakhroo, Group CEO, Ooredoo, said: \u201cThis acquisition directly aligns with Ooredoo Group\u2019s strategic focus on investing in critical digital infrastructure and enabling sovereign AI and cloud services across the region. By integrating Q Data\u2019s hyperscale facilities into Syntys, we reinforce Syntys\u2019 ability to serve the world\u2019s leading cloud and AI providers while delivering sustainable value for our shareholders.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cQ Data brings proven, revenue\u2011generating assets that meet the rigorous standards our clients demand,\u201d said Sunita Bottse, Chief Executive Officer of Syntys. \u201cBy integrating these facilities into the Syntys platform, we expand our capacity in Qatar with internationally recognised, Tier III\u2011certified, carrier\u2011neutral infrastructure tailored to the needs of hyperscale and AI customers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bottse noted the transaction supports Syntys\u2019 regional expansion programme. \u201cWe\u2019re executing a disciplined plan to reach more than 120MW of installed capacity across MENA by 2030,\u201d she said. \u201cThis acquisition advances that strategy by integrating established, cash\u2011generating assets that strengthen our presence in a critical market.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The deal strengthens Syntys\u2019 position as a carrier-neutral infrastructure provider for global cloud and AI platforms in Qatar. Syntys was established through the carve-out of Ooredoo Group\u2019s regional data centre operations and operates facilities across markets in MENA and beyond.<\/p>\n
The acquisition complements Ooredoo Group\u2019s digital infrastructure portfolio, which includes the sovereign AI cloud launched in 2025 that provides public and private institutions in Qatar with local access to advanced compute services.The post Ooredoo Group announces Syntys acquisition of Q Data facilities in Qatar first appeared on AI-Tech Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
