Developer and operator of data center ecosystems designed to provide intelligent and sustainable growth of the Internet.
Switch operates large-scale, 100% renewably powered data center campuses in Nevada, Texas, Georgia and Michigan, supplying the power, cooling and connectivity that cloud providers and enterprises need to run energy-intensive GPU clusters for AI training and inference. DigitalBridge and IFM Investors took it private in a $11B buyout in December 2022; SoftBank Investment Advisers agreed to acquire DigitalBridge itself in December 2025, putting Switch inside SoftBank's AI-infrastructure orbit.

IPO Outlookfiled
Is Switch going public in 2026?
Yes — Switch has confidentially filed for an IPO, with a listing expected in 2026. The filing is the company's own step, not a rumor.
What is Switch's valuation in 2026?
Switch is valued at $11B as of 2022-Q4, set by its Buyout/LBO ($11B, Dec 2022). That is the last confirmed mark, not a live price — private shares do not trade continuously.
Has Switch filed an S-1?
Yes. Switch has a confidential S-1 on file — the draft is not yet public.
Who are Switch's investors?
Switch's investors include DigitalBridge, IFM Investors, SoftBank (via DigitalBridge).
How much has Switch raised?
Switch has raised $1.6B in total, most recently a Buyout/LBO of $11B in Dec 2022.
Is Switch publicly traded — can you buy Switch stock?
Not yet. Switch is private until it lists, so there is no ticker to buy. Before the IPO, exposure is limited to pre-IPO secondary marketplaces and funds (accredited investors) or tender offers; after listing, the shares trade on the exchange under the new ticker.
Answers are derived from the roster record shown on this page — filing status, last round and confirmed marks. Where the record is silent, the answer says so rather than guessing.

The AI data-center repricing has moved far past the $11B take-private: Reuters reported in July 2026 that Switch had hired banks for an IPO that could raise up to $10B as soon as Q4 and value it near $80B including debt, after discussions with private investors at $40B or more. Neither is closed, so the roster keeps the last confirmed transaction price.
