About Accelerate Resources

Accelerate Resources is a real estate investment firm that specializes in acquiring and managing real property interests beneath critical infrastructure assets. Founded in 2015 by Brennan Potts, the company operates from its headquarters in Plano, Texas, with additional offices in New York and Los Angeles. Potts, the firm's CEO, has a background in real estate and has led the company through significant growth, executing over 500 land and real estate transactions.

The company's business model centers on unlocking land value for property owners, developers, and operators in sectors essential to the modern economy. Accelerate invests in the land and ground leases associated with digital infrastructure like telecom towers and data centers; renewable energy projects such as solar and wind farms; and transportation-related facilities including EV charging stations and logistics centers. This strategy provides capital to its partners, allowing them to reduce land acquisition costs and improve project returns. By aggregating these assets into a diversified portfolio, the firm generates long-term, sustainable cash flow for its investors.

In partnership with CBRE Investment Management, Accelerate launched the "Accelerate Infrastructure Opportunities" strategy in 2022 to focus on digital and renewable real property interests across North America. This collaboration has been instrumental in the company's expansion, helping it secure over $1.2 billion in capital commitments from institutional investors, including Mubadala and ART. Since the launch of this strategy, Accelerate has built a portfolio of more than 400 infrastructure sites across 47 U.S. states.
