Digital Realty has entered Portugal, acquiring a data center in Lisbon. Details on the facility, the seller, and terms of the deal weren’t shared in the release. However, in its recent Q4 2025 results, the company said it had acquired “a building and land” in the Carnaxide area of Lisbon for $8.3 million.

“Adding Portugal to our portfolio represents a key piece of our Iberian strategy,” said Paula Cogan, managing director EMEA, Digital Realty.

This expansion strengthens interconnection across our platform and gives customers unparalleled choice and agility as they scale their businesses globally.”

The company added that it is “laying the groundwork for long-term scalability,” with future expansion and campus development plans, but didn’t provide more details.
