Syntys began construction of a 20 MW data centre in Qatar on November 12, 2026. The groundbreaking was attended by the Qatari Minister of Communications and senior reps from Ooredoo, Microsoft, Google and others. The facility will be Tier III‑compliant and support high‑density GPU workloads for AI and high‑performance computing. It adds to Syntys' four existing campuses in the country, expanding local capacity for cloud and hyperscale services.

Why it matters

The new centre lets Qatar‑based firms keep AI and cloud workloads inside the country, reducing latency and meeting data‑sovereignty requirements.
