Edged Data Centers Expands Leadership Team with the Appointment of Mitch Fonseca as Chief Operating Officer

Experienced industry leader to ensure top-tier data center operations and performance for fast-growing North American portfolio

New York, NY (July 16, 2024) — Edged Energy, the sustainable data center infrastructure company, is pleased to welcome seasoned industry veteran Mitch Fonseca as Chief Operating Officer. The expert operations leader brings more than 15 years of experience planning, delivering and operating enterprise-class technology and telecommunications products and services for Fortune 100 companies. In his role as Chief Operating Officer, Fonseca will be responsible for the overall design, construction and operation of the company’s fast-growing U.S. portfolio.

“With several new Edged data centers beginning operations later this year and many more under construction, the timing is perfect to bring on a leader of Mitch’s caliber,” said Edged Chief Executive Officer Bryant Farland. “His deep technical knowledge and proven expertise scaling operations to deliver world-class facilities for hyperscale, enterprise and cloud customers will be integral to our continued growth and success. We are excited to welcome him to the team.”

Edged is building a gigawatt-scale global network of ultra-efficient, AI-ready data centers with waterless cooling across Europe and North America. The state-of-the-art facilities support the intense demands of generative AI and high-performance GPU-based computing - supporting 200 kW/rack with liquid-cooling integration — without consuming any water for cooling. The platform is significantly more efficient than conventional data centers, reducing energy overhead by 74% compared with the global industry average.

“Edged is fundamentally changing what is possible in the IT industry, and I am thrilled to be part of a team delivering innovative and sustainable solutions to some of technology’s greatest challenges. As Artificial Intelligence and advanced computing transform conventional data center design and operation, Edged brings a highly differentiated platform that is not only optimized for the high-density workloads of AI, but also dramatically reduces energy usage and eliminates water consumption for cooling. I look forward to helping Edged put its vision and objectives into action,” said Fonseca.

Prior to joining Edged, Fonseca served as Chief Operating Officer for Cyxtera Technologies where he led all operational functions for the global data center company, including portfolio management, design and construction, service delivery and operations. Before joining Cyxtera, Fonseca held senior IT and data center operations roles at GE Digital, The Telx Group and Terremark Worldwide.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
