Latham & Watkins Advises Vistra on Helix Digital Infrastructure Investment

KKR, together with the Kuwait Investment Authority (KIA), NVIDIA (Nasdaq: NVDA), and Vistra (NYSE: VST) has announced the launch of Helix Digital Infrastructure (Helix), a new company designed to deliver integrated infrastructure at the speed and scale required for hyperscalers to meet accelerating artificial intelligence demand. As building AI infrastructure becomes increasingly complex, Helix will serve as a single coordination point for hyperscalers’ data centers, power, connectivity, and related needs. Founded with anchor investments from investors including KKR, KIA, NVIDIA, and Vistra, the Helix strategy has more than US$10 billion in total long-duration capital commitments to date.

Latham & Watkins LLP represents Vistra in the transaction with a corporate deal team led by Houston partner Trina Chandler and New York partner Caroline Phillips, with associates Karen Song and Yihsin Wang. Advice was also provided on investment funds matters by New York partners Mark Proctor, with associates Shreya Patel and Jon Berger; and on regulatory matters by Washington, D.C. partner Natasha Gianvecchio and counsel Jamie Blackburn.
