      Our services

      Our Strategy team helps evidence and articulate investment cases and wider stakeholder benefits for both data centre operators and the engineering firms that build them.

      For example, we work with data centre operators to quantify their socio-economic benefits, with investors and trade players entering the data centre market, with engineering companies scaling with their data centre customers, and with Private Equity consolidating the supply chain.
