What cgo does

CGO Solutions LLC is a US-based digital infrastructure advisory firm that operates as an intermediary between commercial real estate owners and infrastructure operators. The company's stated function is to bring property owners and infrastructure providers together through end-to-end advisory services spanning EV charging, telecommunications (macro cell sites, small cells, in-building DAS), and renewable energy (solar, wind, battery storage, net metering). Its two primary customer segments are property owners/landlords seeking to monetize underutilized assets and infrastructure operators seeking viable, pre-negotiated deployment sites; both segments are treated as horizontal priorities rather than as a vertical specialization.

The firm's product surface is structured around three core advisory offerings (EV Charging Stations, Telecommunications Infrastructure, and Consulting) plus two program-level products: a Site Host Program that packages hosting options with financing constructs such as charge-as-a-service, revenue sharing, and hybrid models, and an EV Sites marketplace listing pre-negotiated, deploy-ready charging sites. Supporting the advisory layer are proprietary site viability assessment tools that evaluate constructibility and economics prior to hand-off, alongside market research and analytics tools that model charging revenue, dwell time, and subscription spend. Distribution is direct, consultative, and relationship-driven; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

CGO's revenue model blends professional services fees (advisory, lease negotiation) with success-based transaction fees on site acquisition. The firm is privately held as an LLC, appears to be bootstrapped with no disclosed funding rounds, and is led by three Managing Partners (John Cahill, Joe O'Connor, Brett Giurlani). Operating geographies are currently concentrated in five US states (Alabama, California, Colorado, Louisiana, Texas), with active EV Sites inventory updated weekly.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• EVgo: Public EV charging network operator with a nationwide deployment focus and active site acquisition needs. Comparable to CGO because EVgo's growth depends on securing commercial property hosts, the very service CGO facilitates.
• CBRE Group: Global commercial real estate services firm with dedicated infrastructure and digital infrastructure advisory practices serving both property owners and operators. Comparable to CGO because CBRE operates a much larger version of the dual-sided intermediary model in real estate and infrastructure.
• Crown Castle: Largest U.S. tower REIT with significant fiber and small cell operations, performing in-house site acquisition across the country. Comparable to CGO's telecom advisory work but at vastly greater scale and as part of a much broader infrastructure portfolio.
• ChargePoint: Leading EV charging network operator that depends on securing thousands of host sites across commercial real estate. Comparable to CGO because ChargePoint is a primary buyer of the kind of site acquisition and lease negotiation services CGO provides to EV charging operators.
• American Tower: Global tower REIT with extensive U.S. site acquisition capabilities across macro towers and data centers. Comparable to CGO's telecommunications site matching business but as a large incumbent owning and operating the assets itself.
• JLL: Global real estate services firm with capital markets, advisory, and infrastructure-related service lines. Comparable to CGO because JLL connects property owners with infrastructure and capital partners, though as part of a much broader real estate services platform.

Direct peers

• Vertical Bridge: Private U.S. tower company that owns, operates, and develops communications infrastructure including macro towers, small cells, and DAS. Comparable to CGO's telecommunications advisory work because it actively acquires and negotiates site leases with property owners, often working through site acquisition partners.
• DigitalBridge: Digital infrastructure-focused investment and advisory platform operating across towers, data centers, fiber, and small cells. Highly comparable to CGO because it works at the intersection of digital infrastructure deployment and real estate/site relationships, though at a much larger investment-management scale.
• Phoenix Tower International: Owner and operator of wireless infrastructure sites across the Americas and Europe, including macro towers and small cells. Comparable to CGO because site acquisition and landlord lease negotiation are core to its operations, mirroring CGO's telecom advisory offering.
• GreenCourte Partners: Real estate investment firm focused on digital infrastructure and strategic real estate assets, with experience investing in towers, data centers, and EV charging-adjacent assets. Comparable to CGO because it combines real estate ownership with digital infrastructure deployment expertise.
