Welcome to another episode of the Great Business Minds podcast, the definitive show for the business of digital infrastructure.
Our guest this week has a strong capital market background as well as a solid international track record with experience in start-ups through to large international businesses. He has also successfully conducted IPOs and raised private equity for data centre expansion projects.
Josh Joshi is a household name in the data centre space having started his career in the 1990s, just before the dot com bubble imploded and dramatically reshaped the gaming board which had a heavy impact on him.
Post-bubble, Joshi has led teams across several businesses including at Telecity which became one of the first major data centre M&As globally when it was acquired by Equinix (NASDAQ: EQIX) in 2016 for US$3.6 billion. He has also spearheaded the financial efforts of European player Interxion which was later also snapped up by Digital Realty (NYSE: DLR) in 2020 for US$8.4 billion.
Today, Joshi is an operating partner for DigitalBridge (NYSE: DBRG), one of the world’s most active investors in digital infrastructure and he serves as executive chairman of AtlasEdge, Europe’s newest hosting player.
