In this role, Lebow will lead all aspects of the pre-construction project lifecycle, from market analysis, site identification and acquisitions, to zoning, permitting, utility upgrades and interconnections. Lebow's wealth of experience will directly support Stream's mission to find high-quality sites and deliver capacity to our customers when and where it's required.

They have a long track record of success, strong financial partners, and robust customer pipeline; but the thing I value the most is the team's entrepreneurial attitude. Leadership here is willing to take risks and support new initiatives that solve problems for our customers in this dynamic industry. I look forward to helping accelerate Stream's new ventures and expansions, identify ideal data center locations, and deliver shovel-ready sites to meet our customers' evolving needs. It is an honor to be part of one of the industry's most customer-centric companies and I'm excited to help scale the platform with the implementation of robust processes and industry best practices."
