 Welcome to JSA TV and JSA Podcasts, the newsroom for telecom and data center professionals. I'm Barb Mitchell here today in Monaco for DataCloud 2022. And joining me is Tor Johnson, Fund Manager for D9 Infrastructure and Sepot Ihalaian, CEO of Fikolo. Thank you so much, gentlemen, for joining us today. It's great to see you, it's great to be in person here in Monaco. Couldn't ask for a better location. Exactly, thank you very much. It's a bit distracting when you're talking on a panel and you just see this beautiful ocean in the background. So it's great. Good problem to have, right? Yeah, so we're joining you today after just moments after actually some really great news has hit the industry. Can you tell us about it and tell us why you're here together, first of all? Let's start from that. So we announced the acquisition of the Fikolo yesterday and we are really proud of the new owner of D9 Infrastructure and Tor is here with me because of that. Yeah, very excited to have announced it at the start of this conference and timing just worked out that way, but we're extremely excited. It's a great fit, as I'm sure we'll talk about. Just the ethos and the drive behind the management team is just a perfect fit for what we're trying to build within D9. Susapo, tell us how will this change if at all, you know, Fikolo services? In the short term, I believe we have a stronger shoulders. We have a really highly motivated team to continue with our customers. We do not expect any kind of changes in the short term wise for the services. But for the longer term, I'm really hoping to be able to tell some exciting news and plans for the future. And can you tell us Tor a little bit more about D9, you know, about a little bit behind, you know, the name and what it stands for and your focus on sustainability? Yeah, and ultimately that's at the heart of what we're trying to do here in acquiring Fikolo. So D9 stands for the, the name comes from the UN Sustainability Goal number nine. So it's digital nine infrastructure. That fund is listed on the London Stock Exchange. And the UN Sustainability Goal number nine, two aspects of it, one's driving better connectivity and we're investing there to help bridge the digital divide. And secondly, it is investing in an environmentally sustainable way. And for us, the decarbonization of the data center industry is a real, we have a real heart for it and we're really trying to drive our investment thesis towards that. We think it's a perfect fit for the opportunity set in delivering, you know, what enterprise across Europe wants. So lower carbon footprint and ultimately less volatile energy prices. Yeah, that's exactly and this is what we have been doing for the last five years and now we can continue the path what we have already done and we have a really good kind of ecosystem together with the D9 to do that. And really aligns with the Fikolo, you know, stance and focus around sustainability. I do want to just note that Fikolo is contributors to the latest industry, latest book in our industry to be a best seller greener data. So which is part of an industry movement which is I think long overdue and you at Fikolo have been contributing to that. Did you want to add anything about? We have been a leader in sustainability in Nordics. One of the only one who has actually the certificate for the being climate-certified and then being part of the greener data ecosystem with CSA is also could be part of that. So what are you most excited for going forward and sort of what does the future hold for Fikolo? I'm really excited about the technology innovations in the area of the data centers, connectivity. We are really looking forward to kind of build our strength together, hybrid networking, hybrid cloud infrastructure and this is what the D9 is. We are now the bad of the international group of companies to work together. So it's so great to have you here and again I know you're busy just on the heels of this exciting news and congratulations to you both, to your companies and we look forward to hearing more as we go forward and things develop and unveil.
