Digital Infrastructure: Real Estate for the Digital Age
July 5, 2023 | StratCap
In today’s “connected” data-driven world, digital infrastructure has become a critical component of our daily lives and an increasingly popular investment option for real estate investors. The expanding number of mobile and connected devices, combined with tremendous growth in data creation, analysis, and consumption, is catalyzing ongoing demand in the sector. As the world becomes more connected and reliant on technology, digital infrastructure stands to benefit from ongoing advances in cloud computing, social media, 5G, artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous vehicles, and so much more. Unlike traditional commercial real estate whose performance is generally underpinned to macroeconomic indicators, digital infrastructure has considerable ties to mobility, connectivity and technological advancement, given that is supports the transmission, storage and processing of data and information.
