EQUINIX: THE INTERCONNECTION IMPERATIVE
Equinix reported an outstanding 2025, with revenues up 5 % as of Q3, hitting US $ 2.37bn. The Redwood City-based provider operates 270 data centres in 36 countries across five continents as of 2025.
“ Our strong Q3 performance is a clear signal of accelerating momentum, for Q4 and into 2026,” said Adaire Fox-Martin, President and CEO.“ We continue to serve the significant and sustained demand for our differentiated infrastructure and interconnection capabilities in support of our customers’ AI and non-AI workloads.
“ We were built and continue to build for this opportunity, increasing our top-line revenue growth, improving profitability and scaling our metroproximate capacity.”
The company’ s interconnectionfirst strategy sets it apart. With the rapid growth of AI, digital infrastructure providers are critical in enabling companies to be at the forefront of innovation while ensuring long-term sustainability. Sustainability remains central to the proposition. In 2024, all Equinix data centres in the Netherlands updated contracts with customers to allow for A1A standards, with the new temperatures expected to support reduced power usage effectiveness as they roll out at these sites in 2025.
Equinix tested hydrotreated vegetable oil, which can offer up to a 90 % net CO2 reduction, as a drop-in replacement for conventional diesel in backup generators, now piloting the use of HVO within the London, Paris and Frankfurt metros.
