Portfolio
Digital Infrastructure investments target communication and information networks and backbones, submarine cables as well as landing premises, mobile network towers and sites, satellite up- and downlink plots, data centers and fortress recovery sites.
Digital Infrastructure
Asset Class
Digital Infrastructure focuses on long-term, capital-intensive investments. They constitute and enable the information society. Di² has established Digital Infrastructure as a separate Asset Class in order to concentrate on fundamentals of the digitalization. Hence, Digital Infrastructure does not focus on short-term investments but rather separates long-term assets from active equipment or services.

Our event fills a gap that is not covered by other conferences in Europe!
www.di-square.eu
Conferences as we know them
Trade shows(with or without a conference programme) offer good meeting opportunities but are primarily for product and services contacts. There is in general no focus on financial transactions.
Infrastructure eventsusually deal with issues relating to financial instruments, the LP-GP relationship and only to a degree with specifics of individual infrastructure sectors (Energy & Transport).
Specialised TMT/ Investor conferencesare usually focused on listed equity and larger companies. Dedicated communication infrastructure events are US-centric.
4www.di-square.eu
Why our event?The timing is right for an event that is focused on transactions big and small, not talk.
Europe faces many challenges. One of the most salient is to build the digital infrastructure required for future competition and economic growth.
At the peak of the discussions of the new EU Telecom Framework, we offer a platform for making contacts, discussing investments and creating jobs.
We involve policymakers, the public sector and public financial institutions.
