Education Technology Software

Education technology grows on recurring revenue and long customer relationships, a fundamentally different asset than physical infrastructure, and one that calls for a different structural approach. We design capital structures suited to software economics: predictable, contracted, and built to fund growth without forcing unnecessary dilution.

Where the timeline is the challenge

The core financing tension in datacenters is timing. Money goes in early and at scale, namely land, power, and construction, while revenue arrives later and gradually, as the facility fills. Financing the whole thing as a single block forces one source of capital to carry both the construction risk and the lease-up risk, which prices poorly and satisfies no one.

We structure to the actual maturity curve of the facility. Development-phase risk and stabilized-asset cash flow are separated and funded by the capital best suited to each, patient capital through the build, different instruments as the asset stabilizes and its revenue becomes predictable, and the structure mirrors how the facility itself matures.

Datacenters also vary widely, across hyperscale campuses, colocation, and edge, in design, tenancy, and market. That variation is why one-size financing fails here and why the structure has to be built to the specific asset rather than pulled off a shelf.

Our work in datacenters includes:
  • Capital structures matched to the construction-to-stabilization curve

  • Separation of development risk from stabilized-asset cash flow

  • Phase-appropriate instruments across the build timeline

  • Structures tailored to facility type, tenancy, and market

  • Capital structures matched to the construction-to-stabilization curve

  • Separation of development risk from stabilized-asset cash flow

  • Phase-appropriate instruments across the build timeline

  • Structures tailored to facility type, tenancy, and market

A representative structure

A typical engagement might separate a facility’s development phase from its stabilized operation, funding construction with capital positioned to hold build-phase risk, then transitioning to instruments priced against contracted, stabilized cash flow as the asset leases up. Each stage is funded by the capital most suited to it, rather than forcing one source to underwrite the entire arc.

What it enables
  • Capital matched to when it’s actually needed

  • Construction risk and lease-up risk each priced correctly

  • Financing tailored to facility type and market

  • A structure that mirrors how the asset matures
