DENVER — June 13, 2024 — Cologix, a leading network-neutral interconnection and hyperscale edge data center company in North America, announced that Scott Schneider has been promoted to Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Scott succeeds Rachel Stack. As CFO, Scott will lead all aspects of the company’s financial strategy, capital markets and accounting functions. Scott also will continue to drive Cologix’s corporate development strategy, as the company remains focused on its expansion throughout North America.
“We are pleased to promote Scott to CFO,” said Laura Ortman, CEO of Cologix. “Scott has been part of the team for seven years and has a unique understanding of the capital markets combined with a deep understanding of Cologix and our industry. Additionally, as an existing member of our executive team for the past several years, Scott has always brought a valuable, independent and strategic perspective to the table along with driving our Together We Win philosophy across our teams.”
Scott joined Cologix in 2017 as Treasurer and has been integral in raising the equity and debt financing required to drive Cologix’s growth and keep up with customer demand. Under Scott’s tenure as Treasurer, he helped raise over $6 billion of capital, assisted in acquiring nine new facilities, including entering two new markets, and provided a strategic financial viewpoint to support Cologix’s 400% growth realized over this same period.
