On this page

CMS provided legal advice on the lease and construction of a significant digital infrastructure company's inaugural data centre in Indonesia, located in Jakarta's Central Business District and in close proximity to major internet exchanges. Scheduled for opening in 2024, the facility is part of the company's extensive data centre platform.

Recognised as one of the world's leading digital infrastructure entities, the company's ambitious plan for data centre development spans various Asian locations, including Australia, China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia, providing access to thriving markets in banking, commerce, manufacturing, and telecommunications throughout Asia.

CMS has also advised EverYondr, a USD 1 billion joint venture between the Everstone Group and the Yondr Group, on its development and operations of a hyperscale data centre part of the Amanthin Info Parks in Mumbai. This venture combines Everstone’s local real estate expertise and Yondr’s global experience in developing hyperscale data centres globally, to transform India into Asia’s data centre corridor.

CMS provided legal support not only in structuring but also in interfacing design contracts with key supply contracts and the eventual construction contracts. In doing so, CMS rendered advice on a range of complex issues including groundworks, substation, supply and insurances, for compliance with the upstream user requirements of a tech giant. The facility is an eight-storey building and is set to complete in 2025.
