CloudHQ is a Washington, DC-headquartered wholesale data center developer that designs, builds and operates wholesale data centre campuses for cloud platforms and large enterprises, with a model focused on scale, speed to market and power density across multi-building sites. CloudHQ builds data centers exclusively for hyperscale users, with its portfolio primarily rooted in Northern Virginia, though it has expanded rapidly. As of November 2024, CloudHQ reported 11 leased data centres with more than 970MW of contracted IT load in the US and Europe and a further more than 580MW under construction under its green finance framework. The company was founded in 2016 by Hossein Fateh, the former CEO of DuPont Fabros Technology. Its US footprint centers on Northern Virginia (Ashburn, Manassas, Culpeper) plus newer campuses in Santa Clara, San Antonio, Chaska (Minnesota) and suburban Chicago, while its international pipeline spans the UK, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Brazil, Mexico, Japan and Thailand. As of a recent count the company operated more than 70 data centers, with six currently under construction, and another 13 in early design or planning stages. A notable differentiator is CloudHQ’s focus on massive, gigawatt-scale single campuses rather than smaller standalone buildings — for example its Ashburn LC campus plans to host fourteen data centers with a combined customer critical IT load exceeding 1.7 GW, spanning 8,500,000 SF at full build out.

Does CloudHQ operate data centers outside the United States?
Yes.

It has also expanded into Querétaro, Mexico, Osaka, Japan, and Bangkok, Thailand.

Its Ashburn, Virginia LC campus is its flagship site: the campus plans to host fourteen data centers with a combined customer critical IT load exceeding 1.7 GW, and at full build out will span 8,500,000 square feet.
Who are CloudHQ's customers?
CloudHQ builds for hyperscale tenants rather than general enterprise colocation customers. Its debut Manassas facility, MCC1, delivered what was described as the largest lease in the history of the data center industry, presenting an anchor tenant with 35 megawatts of space.
Does CloudHQ have specific AI/GPU-optimized infrastructure?
CloudHQ's public materials describe its campuses as built for general hyperscale cloud and enterprise tenants, and while industry coverage notes its pipeline is 'tuned to cloud and AI growth,' no specific facility has been confirmed with named GPU clusters or liquid-cooling AI infrastructure, so no facility is currently flagged as AI-optimized.
Does CloudHQ offer colocation services?
Yes — we've identified 33 facilities where CloudHQ may offer colocation services. Please contact CloudHQ directly to confirm current availability and terms.
