About Rachit Mohan

As a technology executive, how do you go about choosing the right data center strategy for your organisation? You may have decided that colocation is the best option for your strategic needs, but not all colocation data centre providers can offer the same specifications that align with your requirements. Weighing cost-effectiveness, scalability, security, and sustainability can be overwhelming, but with careful analysis and the right partner, you can unlock the full potential of data center solutions such as colocation.As Head of Data Centre Leasing for JLL in APAC, I lead a team of experts who help clients navigate the complexities of digital infrastructure. We offer tailored services to assess needs, evaluate providers, and implement strategic solutions aligned with your business goals and sustainability values.With more than two decades of experience in real estate, investments, and data centers across APAC, I\'ve built a reputation as a trusted advisor in this highly dynamic market. Working extensively across India, APAC, and the US, I’ve played a key role in significant fundraising projects, such as establishing a joint venture platform between a local operator and an international player. I’ve also provided buy-side advisory services for top data center operators, including large-scale self-build acquisition projects, while facilitating numerous high-profile colocation deals for major enterprise clients, including key BFSIs and OTT platforms. Within my own team, I believe in fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment. I empower my team to take ownership, embrace challenges, and continuously learn. Together, we\'re shaping the future of digital infrastructure in APAC and I’m proud of the results we deliver for our clients.If you would like to discuss the datacentre colocation strategies that will deliver optimum efficiency, scalability, and security, please feel free to get in touch with me at r••••••••@jll.com.
