CDT Roundup: Back to Basics

The first week of summer 2026 saw a return to basics — or what seems basic in the data center infrastructure era — with deals heavy on energy providers, virtual infrastructure and yet more SpaceX.

The 11 transactions for the week ending June 27 included deals involving heavy construction, data security, robotics, renewable power assets, Rare Earth materials and offshore aviation services. They were together valued at $46 billion — with the heavy number provided by an inaugural $25 billion debt offering by the Space Exploration Technologies Corporation.
