DigitalBridge Group, Inc. and its partner Abrdn Investments received approval from the European Commission on February 23 2026 to acquire EQUANS Infra & Mobility, a Dutch company that specializes in electro‑technical installation works for transport infrastructure.
The approval removes a key regulatory hurdle and allows the transaction to move forward toward closing. While the financial value of the deal was not disclosed, the acquisition is expected to broaden DigitalBridge’s footprint in the European infrastructure market, adding assets that support rail, road, airport, and electric‑vehicle charging infrastructure.
EQUANS Infra & Mobility’s portfolio includes installation, operation, and maintenance of EV charging stations and other transport‑related infrastructure. These assets align with DigitalBridge’s strategy to invest in digital infrastructure that underpins emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and sustainable mobility.
Abrdn Investments is a partner in the transaction, but its exact stake and investment amount were not specified in the announcement. The partnership reflects Abrdn’s focus on high‑growth areas and DigitalBridge’s broader strategy of expanding its digital infrastructure platform.
No additional regulatory approvals were mentioned, indicating that the European Commission’s clearance was the primary hurdle cleared for the deal. The approval signals that the transaction does not raise competition concerns in the EU and positions DigitalBridge to complete the acquisition and integrate the new assets into its portfolio.
