AirTrunk
Australian data centre company
AirTrunk is an Australian data centre company founded by Robin Khuda in 2015, and sold to Blackstone for A$24 billion (US$16 billion). The company operates more than 3 GW of operating and planned capacity across 20 sites in six countries: Australia, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and India.
Operations
Japan
AirTrunk has four hyperscale campuses in Japan: TOK1 and TOK2 in the Tokyo area, and OSK1 and OSK2 in Osaka. At full build-out, the four campuses are expected to deliver approximately 530 MW of total capacity.
The flagship TOK1 campus, located in east Tokyo, is designed to scale to more than 300 MW of capacity. In March 2026, AirTrunk secured a JP¥191.6 billion (US$1.24 billion) green loan to refinance existing facilities and fund further development phases at TOK1 – the largest data centre financing ever completed in Japan. The loan was structured under AirTrunk's Green Financing Framework and was led by Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, MUFG Bank, Crédit Agricole CIB and Société Générale as global coordinators, with twelve banks participating in total.
India
In April 2026, AirTrunk announced the acquisition of Lumina CloudInfra, a data centre developer founded by Blackstone, to expand its presence in India. The value of the deal was not disclosed. Lumina has 600 MW of planned capacity and up to US$5 billion in development potential.

Why this record matters
The phrase “australian data centre company” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 5, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q136446452. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2015 and 2026.
Later summaries often reconcile disputed chronology or motive more neatly than the contemporary record permits. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
