Colovore Taps Infrastructure Veteran Jeffrey Springborn as CEO
Company accelerates national buildout of liquid-cooled AI data centers amid surging demand
SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#AI–Colovore, the leader in ultra-high-density, liquid cooling colocation solutions, today announced the appointment of Jeffrey Springborn as Chief Executive Officer. A seasoned operator in data center development and cloud services, Springborn will guide the company through its next phase of growth as it scales a national buildout strategy to meet rising demand for AI and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure.
Springborn joins Colovore on the heels of a $925 million financing facility with Blackstone to fuel expansion of its AI data center platform in key U.S. metro markets. Driven by strong demand for mission-critical infrastructure that supports enterprise planning and multi-market deployments, Colovore is expanding into key U.S. metro markets. New high-density, liquid-cooled facilities are being strategically developed to align with customer roadmaps, enabling partners to secure capacity and shape infrastructure rollouts that match long-term AI and HPC growth.
“AI infrastructure needs are evolving faster than most data centers can adapt,” said Jeffrey Springborn, CEO of Colovore. “Colovore is building what tomorrow demands—today. The customers we’re partnering with aren’t just early adopters, they’re forward-thinking leaders who see what’s coming and are preparing for it now. They know that to stay ahead in AI, you can’t wait for capacity. You have to secure the right infrastructure before the rush. With the backing of King Street, that’s exactly what we’re enabling them to do.”
With over three decades of executive experience scaling infrastructure platforms, Springborn is focused on engaging strategic customers now, helping them anticipate future needs and align infrastructure planning to their AI roadmaps. In a rapidly tightening market, the advantage goes to those who move early.
Colovore Board Chairman and Managing Partner of King Street Capital Brian Higgins said, ‘”I’m pleased to announce Jeff Springborn as Colovore’s new CEO. We identified Jeff as the leader with the right experience to accelerate our growth in the AI infrastructure market. His 30 years of technology leadership and infrastructure expertise will be crucial as we expand our liquid-cooled data centers nationwide. Jeff complements the strong foundation built by Sean and Peter, positioning Colovore to meet the surging demand for AI-ready infrastructure. The Board is confident in Jeff’s ability to execute our strategic vision in this next phase of growth.”
Colovore’s design enables 17–300 kW per rack, far exceeding traditional air-cooled limits of traditional air-cooled infrastructure. Purpose-built for the dense, distributed, and latency-sensitive inference applications of modern AI workloads, Colovore offers unmatched power and performance at scale. With AI data centers in Silicon Valley and facilities underway in Reno, Chicago, Austin, and more, Colovore is strategically building in markets with strong AI ecosystems and customer proximity.
“Smart companies are locking in infrastructure now to avoid being left behind later,” said Springborn. “We’re not just building data centers—we’re shaping the AI backbone of tomorrow.”
