Colovore Appoints Jeffrey Springborn as CEO to Accelerate National Buildout of Liquid-Cooled AI Data Centers Amid Surging Demand SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Colovore, a leader in ultra-high-density, liquid-cooled colocation solutions, has announced the appointment of Jeffrey Springborn as its new Chief Executive Officer. With a strong background in data center development and cloud services, Springborn is set to guide the company through its next phase of growth, focusing on a national buildout strategy to meet the increasing demand for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure. Springborn’s arrival coincides with a $925 million financing facility from Blackstone, which will fund the expansion of Colovore’s AI data center platform in key U.S. metropolitan areas. The company is responding to the urgent need for mission-critical infrastructure that supports enterprise planning and multi-market deployments by developing new, high-density, liquid-cooled facilities strategically aligned with customer roadmaps. This allows partners to secure capacity and shape infrastructure rollouts that match their long-term AI and HPC growth goals. “AI infrastructure needs are evolving at a pace that outstrips the capabilities of most traditional data centers,” Springborn noted. “At Colovore, we’re building the data centers of tomorrow today. Our customers are forward-thinking leaders who recognize the importance of securing the right infrastructure before the market tightens. With the support of King Street, we are empowering them to do just that.” Springborn brings over 30 years of executive experience in scaling infrastructure platforms, focusing on helping strategic customers anticipate and align with future needs. In a market where early movers gain a significant advantage, his priority is to engage with key players now to ensure they are well-prepared for AI’s rapid advancements. “We are thrilled to welcome Jeff Springborn as Colovore’s CEO,” said Brian Higgins, Colovore’s Board Chairman and Managing Partner of King Street Capital. “His extensive technology leadership and infrastructure expertise make him the ideal candidate to drive our growth in the AI infrastructure market. Jeff’s appointment builds on the strong foundation laid by Sean and Peter, positioning Colovore to meet the surging demand for AI-ready infrastructure. The Board is confident in Jeff’s ability to execute our strategic vision effectively in this new phase of expansion.” Colovore’s innovative design enables power densities ranging from 17 to 300 kilowatts per rack, significantly surpassing the limitations of conventional air-cooled infrastructure. Purpose-built for the dense, distributed, and low-latency requirements of modern AI workloads, Colovore’s data centers offer unprecedented power and performance at scale. The company currently operates AI data centers in Silicon Valley and is expanding to additional markets such as Reno, Chicago, and Austin, where strong AI ecosystems and customer proximity are essential. “Intelligent businesses understand the value of securing infrastructure early to stay ahead of the competition,” Springborn emphasized. “We are not just constructing data centers; we are laying the groundwork for the AI-driven future.” For more information, visit www.colovore.com.
