China’s thriving data centre market
China’s data centre market is constantly growing, with several new data centre developments earmarked by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology within the ‘Eastern Data, Western Computing’ plan. According to Arizton, the Internet data centre market in China is expected to be valued at $34.03 billion by 2028, with a CAGR of 2.69% between 2022 and 2028.
In recent months, two investment funds in Singapore have announced commitments to invest in China. The CapitaLand China Data Centre Partners (CDCP) will invest $389.6 million in two hyperscale data centre developments in the Greater Beijing area, while Singapore’s Keppel Data Centre Fund II LP entered into a strategic partnership with Heying to develop a greenfield data centre in Beijing worth $218.9 million.
Opportunities for Chinese companies in Southeast Asia
Valued at $12.3 billion and considered one of the fastest-growing markets in the world, Southeast Asia presents many expansion and investment opportunities for companies in China.
Several Chinese companies have already expanded into the region, with investments in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand.
