KIO Data Centers (formerly branded KIO Networks) is a Mexican-founded colocation and cloud infrastructure provider operating roughly 20 data centers across Mexico, Panama, Guatemala, Colombia and the Dominican Republic as of 2026, with combined core capacity historically cited around 26MW and a newer, larger buildout underway in Querétaro. Founded in 2002 and majority-owned by infrastructure investor I Squared Capital since 2021, KIO’s largest concentration of sites is in Mexico, where it runs multiple Mexico City buildings (Santa Fe 1, 2, 3 and the newly-started MEX8), plus Querétaro (QRO1 and the newly launched QRO2), Monterrey, Hermosillo, Mérida and the State of Mexico. The company positions itself as a carrier-neutral, Tier III/Tier IV operator serving enterprise, government, fintech and cloud customers, and it also markets a modular “ATOM” mobile/edge data center line for smaller Mexican cities. KIO previously operated two U.S. facilities, sold to Zayo in 2017 (now run by DataBank), and exited Spain in 2024 after selling its Spanish unit (Murcia and a newly built Valencia site) to its former joint-venture partner. It remains privately held and is not considered a hyperscaler, instead competing as a regional Latin American colocation and managed-cloud specialist.
KIO Networks operates as a cloud provider and colocation provider, with facilities at the following locations:
