Finance to secure land, powered land and powered shells ahead of full development.
Image · Land & Powered-Shell Acquisition FinancePowered land and powered shells — sites and buildings with secured grid power and core infrastructure — are the scarcest input in data-center development. Matchpoint arranges acquisition and bridge finance to secure land, powered land and powered shells ahead of fit-out and lease-up.
As part of our Data Center Financing practice, Matchpoint Partners has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions across four continents — and every data center financing mandate is led by a partner, from first call to close.

A built data-center shell with secured grid power and core infrastructure, ready for a tenant or operator to fit out.
Securing land and grid power is time-critical and capital-intensive; dedicated acquisition or bridge finance lets developers lock in scarce capacity ahead of construction.
Matchpoint arranges the full capital stack for data-center developers and operators — land and powered-shell acquisition finance, senior construction and project finance, mezzanine, equity and JV capital, plus take-out refinancing and sale-and-leaseback once a facility stabilises. Tickets range from USD 20m to USD 500m+.
No. Matchpoint is a corporate-finance and capital-introduction firm: we structure and raise the finance, introduce equity and debt investors and advise on M&A. We do not provide engineering, construction or facility-operations services — those are delivered by your own contractors and operators.
Contracted, long-term lease or offtake cash flows from creditworthy hyperscale and enterprise tenants give data centers infrastructure-like return profiles, while structural demand from AI and cloud underpins growth. We structure debt and equity around those contracted cash flows and the asset’s secured power and connectivity.
Matchpoint works primarily on a success fee, with a modest retainer to cover execution. Fees are agreed in writing up front and scaled to the size and complexity of the transaction — with no hidden costs.
Most mandates reach a first term sheet within 30–90 days, depending on diligence readiness and structure; closing follows once terms are agreed.
A short, confidential scoping call and NDA; we structure the requirement and prepare materials, then run a competitive process across our 5,000+ investor and lender relationships, and negotiate to close — with a partner leading at every step.
Matchpoint Partners is based in the UAE and runs cross-border mandates across the UAE, KSA, India and the UK, with active deal activity in wider Europe, Singapore and the United States.
