Global hyperscale data-center operator spun out of GDS Holdings to serve AI cloud demand
DayOne is the international hyperscale-data-center spin-out of China's GDS Holdings, focused on AI-grade liquid-cooled capacity in Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, and Indonesia. Closed a $2.0B Series C in early 2026 led by GIC and Kuwait's KIA, taking total funding past $3.9B. Reports suggest IPO ambitions north of $20B - a listing window may open in 2026 if AI capex demand holds.

What is DayOne's valuation in 2026?
DayOne is valued at $10B as of 2026-Q1, set by its Series C ($2.0B, Feb 2026). That is the last confirmed mark, not a live price — private shares do not trade continuously.

DayOne has raised $3.9B in total, most recently a Series C of $2.0B in Feb 2026.
Is DayOne publicly traded — can you buy DayOne stock?
No. DayOne is a private company — its shares are not listed on any exchange and there is no ticker. The routes to exposure are pre-IPO secondary marketplaces and funds (accredited investors), employee tender offers when the company runs one, and public companies with read-through exposure. QuantLogix maps every route it can verify for DayOne on its Pre-IPO Access Desk.
