DigitalBridge owns a global-leading portfolio of 32 GW of data center compute availability, with dedicated power solutions from its Arc Light acquisition. Bringing compute and power together pushes levered returns into the mid-to-high teens. The ability to deliver on-time, independent power for AI factories creates a unique competitive advantage that justifies premium rents and sustained growth.
AI digital infrastructure demand remains historic.
Ganzi argues this is a historic, long-run buildout of all digital infrastructure supporting AI, cloud, mobile, and industrial use cases. Demand is amplified by a compute bottleneck, and he remains sanguine because it is another multi-decade infrastructure cycle rather than a short-term fad.
Nvidia's financing conduit is priced around an 8% return and is designed to backstop non-investment-grade customers below the Magnificent 7, especially neocloud operators and new entrants. Ganzi says this allows Nvidia to keep selling chips and support its broader customer base, even though the operators being financed carry risk-adjusted economics near 14-16%.
SoftBank is building full-stack AI infrastructure.
He argues SoftBank is transforming into a full-stack AI infrastructure powerhouse. Its strategy spans five layers: power, physical infrastructure, hardware and robotics, large language models, and applications. Ganzi says no other company can deliver this full stack, and DigitalBridge will help SoftBank deliver on that vision globally.
