History and when Vertiv Holdings Co. was founded
Vertiv’s origins trace back to Emerson Network Power, a division of Emerson Electric that, throughout the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s, became a global leader in power systems and thermal-management solutions for data centers. The division expanded through key acquisitions, including Liebert and Avocent, establishing a broad technological foundation that would shape Vertiv’s future.
In 2016, Emerson Network Power was acquired by Platinum Equity, marking the formal creation of Vertiv as an independent company focused on digital-infrastructure solutions. Independence allowed the company to sharpen its strategic direction, increase investment flexibility and adapt more rapidly to the evolving needs of cloud and telecom customers.
A major milestone occurred in 2020, when Vertiv became a publicly traded company through a merger with a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC). This transition provided greater access to capital, supporting investments in global expansion, manufacturing capabilities and R&D initiatives aimed at addressing the accelerating construction of data centers worldwide.
From 2020 to 2024, Vertiv advanced technological modernization, expanded high-efficiency thermal and power-management product lines, strengthened its presence in emerging markets and deepened partnerships with hyperscale operators and IT-infrastructure providers.
The period was also marked by supply-chain challenges, prompting operational optimization and strategic planning efforts. Vertiv has since solidified its position as a key global provider of mission-critical digital infrastructure.
