The seller is Doha Venture Capital, a subsidiary of the Qatar Free Zones Authority.

She added that the acquisition supports Syntys’ regional expansion plan to reach more than 120MW of installed capacity across MENA by 2030, accelerating growth through established, cash-generating assets in a strategic market.

Syntys was spun out from Ooredoo Group’s regional data centre operations and now operates facilities across MENA. The acquisition complements Ooredoo’s broader digital infrastructure portfolio, including the sovereign AI cloud launched in 2025 to provide local access to advanced compute services for public and private institutions in Qatar.
