As AI and data demand surge, DigitalBridge’ s Steven Sonnenstein shows how tower scale and diversification keep the firm ahead in digital infrastructure
D riven by a comprehensive, technology-forward approach that leverages scale, expertise and innovative thinking across multiple asset classes, DigitalBridge has ownership and managerial oversight of more than 600,000 telecom antenna sites worldwide. The global alternative digital infrastructure asset manager has also ventured into emerging sectors like outdoor media infrastructure, uniquely positioning it to navigate the rapid evolution of connectivity and data needs.
As its Senior Managing Director at DigitalBridge Investment Management, Steven Sonnenstein not only leads the firm’ s global tower practice and specific adjacent infrastructure initiatives but is also a key driver of the firm’ s forwardlooking and integrated strategy.
“ We own and operate 11 tower companies globally which gives us a clear view of the market – we see what’ s coming, how it’ s evolving and the dynamics across valuation, operations and financing,” he says.“ It means we can anticipate rather than react.”
For Steven, that perspective proves why diversification matters – across geographies and verticals.
