Penta Infra is a pan-European colocation operator, headquartered in Amsterdam, that owns and runs edge and core data centers across five countries and, as of 2026, more than a dozen cities. Its model centers on acquiring and refurbishing existing data center buildings (from telcos and legacy operators such as KPN and Sungard) as well as building greenfield sites, then selling colocation ranging from single racks to full data halls, with an increasing focus on AI/HPC-ready, liquid-cooled capacity. Founded in 2015 and backed by Dutch investment fund Photon Capital together with Dutch pension fund PGGM, Penta Infra positions itself around ‘European data sovereignty,’ 100% renewable power, and carrier-neutral connectivity at every site. As of early 2026 the company describes itself as owning 15 data centers across Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Denmark, with a newly announced Munich facility (targeted for 2028) extending its German footprint into the southeast of the country.

AI Data Centers
Penta Infra has begun positioning several of its facilities specifically for AI and HPC workloads rather than just general colocation. Its Hamburg site is marketed as 'AI/HPC-ready,' and the newly acquired Munich facility (announced in 2026, targeted to open in 2028) is explicitly designed for high-density colocation with liquid cooling to serve AI workloads, alongside on-site solar and waste-heat recovery.
