Quality Growth Companies (QGC), the family office and business-building platform founded by Chad and Jeannie Williams, has launched Quality Infratech Intelligence (QII) — pronounced “Q-2” — an infrastructure and energy company focused on developing powered campuses for AI factories, advanced manufacturing, and other energy-intensive industries. The company plans to build projects ranging from 100 megawatts to multi-gigawatt scale and follows a “power first” infrastructure strategy, with power availability and substations secured upfront, integrating zoning, entitlements, and utility access so sites are ready to deploy. QII is committed to a grid-only strategy, at least for now, and is focused on nontraditional data center locations outside of primary markets. Chad Williams serves as Chairman and CEO of QII, while Richard Voorberg, former President of Siemens Energy North America, has been named Chief Infratech Officer. At least initially, QII is being funded entirely by the Quality Growth Companies family office, with no outside sponsor or investors, though capital partners may eventually be brought on board.

About the Quality Growth Companies family office: QGC

Quality Growth Companies was founded in 1999 by Chad and Jeannie Williams and has its roots in the data center industry. The company launched Quality Technology Services (QTS) after acquiring a 380,000 square-foot data center in Suwanee, Georgia, which grew under Chad Williams’ leadership into one of the largest and fastest-growing digital infrastructure providers in the world, serving enterprise, federal, and hyperscale customers. In 2009, Williams secured a major growth investment from General Atlantic, which fueled QTS’s expansion and positioned the company for its 2013 debut on the New York Stock Exchange. In 2021, he led QTS to its $10 billion take-private by Blackstone, one of the largest transactions in the sector. At the time of Williams’ departure from QTS in spring 2025, Blackstone valued the QTS platform at $60 billion. The company was rebranded from Quality Group of Companies to Quality Growth Companies on July 4, 2025. In addition to QII, QGC includes a foundation and a motorsports arm. Chad and Jeannie Williams co-chair The QFoundation, which supports veterans, first responders, and community initiatives.
