EdgeMicro celebrates some noteworthy accomplishments by securing a major contribution in expansion funds and welcoming two new industry veterans to help pave the way for the future of the company. The edge colocation company headquartered in Denver has big plans for the funding and its new leaders.
$5 Million in Expansion Funds
EdgeMicro recently landed $5 million to accelerate its expansion. DH Capital, LLC, an investment banking firm serving companies in the internet infrastructure, communications, and software sectors, served as the financial advisor.
The capital will be used to launch several additional micro data centers. The new sites will be announced in the coming weeks, the locations finalized via collaborative effort between EdgeMicro and its expanding base of core clients. The additional capital also helps create and deliver expanding solutions to simplify how organizations deploy successfully at the edge.
“We are pleased to support EdgeMicro as the company continues to bring crucial connectivity services through its micro data centers to underserved areas of the country. With the nation’s rising demand for bandwidth, we believe EdgeMicro’s business model and expert team are well positioned to support the massive growth at the edge,” said Adam Lewis, Managing Partner at DH Capital, LLC.
“EdgeMicro continues to demonstrate its ability to scale with velocity. Our team remains highly focused to deliver colocation solutions with the speed, efficiency and reliability companies need to win at the edge,” said Mike Hagan, Founder & CEO of EdgeMicro.
Leading the Edge
EdgeMicro has also expanded its leadership team with Lauri Abrahamson and Christian Kersgard. Abrahamson was previously a consultant and joins EdgeMicro as its Director Business Development. Kersgard serves as EdgeMicro’s operations team’s Senior Manager Service Delivery. Together, they bring more than 40 years of experience in the telecom and data center industries.
“Bringing in Lauri and Christian full-time is just as important as closing additional funding because it’s people who build winning organizations. Our team members are knowledgeable and competitive, and they possess the passion and sense of urgency it takes to lead,” said Greg Pettine, EVP of Business Development.
