nLighten is a digital infrastructure platform owned by I Squared Capital, a leading global infrastructure investor. The company is developing innovative edge data centers distributed across European key economic hubs to provide best-in-class network access to regional, national, and global enterprises, private users, and the mobile workforce.

The edge data centers developed by nLighten are designed to meet the increasing demand for faster and more reliable data processing and storage, while also being mindful of environmental impact. nLighten was founded in 2021 by a core team with many years of experience and wide-ranging expertise in the data center sector.
