ELO

Data Centers & Compute

The capacity is full. We find the rest.

Data-center vacancy is at a record low, and most new capacity is leased before it is built. ELO Advisors brokers the space, the compute, and the assets that are left, off-market, where the deals that matter actually move.

01 / The Demand

A market that sells out before it opens.

The data center is where the whole supply chain points. Capacity is leased years ahead, vacancy is near zero, and the tenants who need space are competing for what little is not already spoken for.

Pre-leased

74%

Of capacity under construction is already leased before it is finished.

02 / The Market

Record demand, almost nothing to spare.

Capital is pouring in and capacity is scarce. Finding space that is actually available is the whole game.

03 / What We Broker

Space, compute, and the assets themselves.

Across the data-center stack, from a powered shell to a whole platform.

01

Capacity & colocation

Leased and pre-leased megawatts, in a market where vacancy is near zero.

02

Build-to-suit

Purpose-built campuses matched to an operator or tenant requirement.

03

Powered shells & turnkey

Sites and buildings at every stage of readiness, from shell to fit-out.

04

Compute & GPU capacity

Access to the silicon and the clouds that run on it, not just the floor space.

05

Hyperscale offtake

Long-term capacity commitments between operators and the tenants who fill them.

06

Whole assets & M&A

Operating data centers and platforms changing hands, sourced quietly.

04 / How We Work

The space that clears is the space nobody lists.

In a market this tight, capacity moves privately. We source it through operators and tenants directly, and structure the deal around it.

  1. 01

    We define the requirement

    Capacity, location, power, timeline, and the tenant behind it.

  2. 02

    We source the capacity

    Leased space, powered shells, build-to-suit, or whole assets, mostly off-market.

  3. 03

    We match the counterparties

    Operators, tenants, and capital that actually fit the deal.

  4. 04

    We structure the deal

    Lease, build-to-suit, offtake, or acquisition, on the right terms.

  5. 05

    We close

    Documented, with the diligence a multi-year commitment needs.

05 / Where We Fit

We trade where there is nothing on the shelf.

When the market is sold out, the value is access. We reach the operators, tenants, and owners directly, and put the right ones together.

Where vacancy is near zero

We find capacity in a market with almost none to spare, because we work it off-market.

Off-market

The deals that clear are private, between operators and tenants, not posted listings.

Across the stack

Capacity, compute, and whole assets, assembled together rather than one slice.

06 / Our Network

We sit between the operator and the tenant.

Demand

  • Compute and GPU providers

07 / Questions

What do you broker here?

Data-center capacity and colocation, build-to-suit campuses, powered shells, compute and GPU access, and whole operating assets.

Vacancy is near zero. How do you find capacity?

Off-market, through operators and tenants directly. The deals that clear are private, not posted.

Do you handle compute, not just buildings?

Yes. We broker access to GPU capacity and the clouds that run on it, alongside the physical space.

How are you paid?

A success fee on the transaction, with a work fee for live mandates. Aligned with getting the deal done.

08 / Contact

Need capacity, or have it to place?

Tell us the requirement, the market, and the timeline, or the capacity you hold. We will tell you how we would source or place it.
