Acquisition
Private equity firm The Gores Group completed the acquisition of Texan fiber network and data center operator Alpheus Communications. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Buyout
The assets of North of England based company Iceotope, producers of a modular liquid cooling platform, have been bought by a consortium including the original engineering team, backed by a seven figure investment sum.
Original inventor, and newly appointed CTO, Peter Hopton led the fund-raising to acquire the technology and the IP.
Iceotope has a patented approach to reduce power consumption in data centres by tackling the problem of cooling servers at the source of the heat - at component level. Iceotope licenses this technology to vendors, helping them to reduce the cooling requirements in their servers and electronics. The electronic components are sealed inside giant heat-pipes containing an ultra-convective fluid, so that all generated heat can be captured in water and efficiently removed, without heating up the surrounding data centre environment.
