Operating Company

Operated by:

Vaultica runs carrier-neutral enterprise colocation in five European metros: Milan, Geneva, Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo. Its seven data centers serve telecom carriers, IT and cloud providers, and financial institutions. At MIL01 in Siziano and GEN02 in Gland, it sells colocation inside buildings that STACK still runs. It is building MIL03 in Settimo Milanese and plans MAD01 in Alcalá de Henares, near Madrid.

Infrastructure funds managed by Apollo own the company. Apollo agreed on 29 April 2025 to buy STACK Infrastructure's European colocation business from Blue Owl Digital Infrastructure. The carve-out closed on 13 August 2025. STACK had set up the colocation unit in 2024, and it kept its European hyperscale business. The carved-out business launched as Vaultica on 10 December 2025.

Leadership

  • Sherif Rizkalla, CEO. He led SUPERNAP Italia from 2019, then STACK's Italian and Swiss business, then STACK EMEA's enterprise colocation unit.
  • Roger Semprini, Group Chief Commercial Officer since December 2025. He was previously managing director of Equinix Switzerland.

Predecessor brands

  • DigiPlex (Nordics): Byrne Murphy and Bill Conway bought the Norwegian operator in 2001. DigiPlex built the Oslo, Stockholm and Copenhagen sites. IPI Partners bought it in 2021.
  • Safe Host (Geneva): Gérard Sikias founded it in 2000. Safe Host built the two Geneva-area sites. IPI Partners agreed to buy it in May 2022.
  • SUPERNAP Italia (Milan): Switch, Accelero Capital and Orascom TMT Investments formed SUPERNAP International in 2014. Its Italian arm built the Siziano campus from 2015. IPI Partners bought control in February 2021.

IPI Partners merged DigiPlex and SUPERNAP Italia into STACK EMEA in March 2022 and later added Safe Host.
