LONDON., — June 12, 2023 — Yondr Group, a global leader, developer, owner operator and service provider of data centers today announced that it has successfully agreed a partnership with Apollo Global Management, a high-growth global alternative asset manager. This strategic relationship marks a significant milestone for Yondr as it continues to grow internationally, in line with client demand.

Apollo Partners Trevor Mills and Andrew Kirby said, “We are delighted to work with Yondr Group. With our support, Yondr can develop innovative, sustainable infrastructure solutions and meet the growing needs of an increasingly data-driven world.”

Dylan Foo, Head of Global Infrastructure at Apollo, added, “We believe this transaction demonstrates our ability to navigate complexity amid continued economic uncertainty and structure an attractive, tailored investment which supports the needs of both Yondr and Apollo Funds. We look forward to supporting Yondr’s continued expansion while pursuing the high growth secular trend of global cloud adoption.”
