Real Estate Investments & Transactions

We are assisting the Municipality of Tuusula in the sale of land to funds managed by Blackstone, a global asset management company, for a data centre project. Currently, a preliminary agreement has been signed for the sale of the approximately 16.7 hectare site in Jokela, Tuusula.

In October 2025, the Municipal Council of Tuusula approved zoning amendments that enable the construction of a data centre campus in the Vallunlenkki zoning area. The preliminary agreement on the sale of the land and the approval of the zoning are the first steps in a process that would upon its implementation constitute a significant investment that supports employment and economic growth in Tuusula and its surroundings. The next phase, the environmental impact assessment, is planned to commence in early 2026.

Blackstone owns QTS, one of the worlds’s fastest growing data centre platforms with more than 82 data centres in operation or under development across Europe and the United States.
