Empyrion Digital, a Singapore-headquartered data centre platform has broken ground today at its first data centre in Thailand. Located in Bang Na, an emerging connectivity hub in Bangkok, the 20 MW data center is expected to go live in Q3 2027.

TH1, located on a site spanning over 17,000 square metre, has already secured power and connectivity to major fibre providers in Bangkok. It is built to support hyperscalers, cloud service providers and AI applications.

Mark Fong, CEO of Empyrion Digital, said: “The groundbreaking of TH1 represents an important milestone in Empyrion Digital’s continued expansion across Asia. Thailand is a strategic market and an increasingly vital hub for hyperscale, enterprise cloud and AI-driven workloads in Southeast Asia. Our investment underscores our commitment to delivering future-ready, AI-enabled digital infrastructure in locations where our customers are scaling and innovating.”

At the event, Empyrion Digital also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with TCC Technology (TCCtech) under which the latter will extend its fibre optic network into TH1. With over 50 networks within its ecosystem and direct access to eight major IXPs (Internet Exchanges), TCCtech enables lower latency performance, greater routing diversity, and broader domestic and regional reach for enterprises operating in Thailand and across ASEAN.

Veerapat Reungdej, Assistant Managing Director of TCC Technology (TCCtech), said: “TCCtech has long been committed to building a strong, open, and future ready connectivity ecosystem for Thailand. Our collaboration with Empyrion Digital reinforces this mission by extending our fibre footprint and interconnection capabilities to TH1. Together, we aim to deliver a high-performance environment that empowers businesses with the speed, reliability, and scalability needed to thrive in the digital economy.”
