Data centers

Finland has become one of Europe’s leading destinations for data center investment and development, driven by growing demand for cloud services, AI infrastructure and digital connectivity. The reliable energy network, strong connectivity and stable operating environment make Finland particularly attractive for large-scale digital infrastructure projects.

Avance advises developers, investors, operators and infrastructure funds on data center projects and transactions. Our multidisciplinary team combines expertise in real estate, infrastructure, energy, financing and corporate transactions to support clients throughout the lifecycle of a project.

We advise on all key aspects of data center projects, from site selection, land acquisition and development to zoning and permitting, energy and grid connection arrangements, infrastructure and utility agreements, construction and procurement projects, financing arrangements, structuring, strategic partnerships, commercial contracts and M&A transactions.

As the demand for digital infrastructure continues to increase, we help clients pursue opportunities in a rapidly evolving market with practical, solution-oriented advice and a strong understanding of the commercial drivers behind each project.
