as you have a lot of ISPs around you it should be really easy to get some

What do you mean by this? If some ISP want to donate bw, nice. If not also Ok.

Not necessarily. This much depends on your IXP model. Let's take DE-CIX.
There is an association running DE-CIX, but InterXion as colo partner takes
cae for a lot of things. If DE-CIX would offer infrastructural services,
InterXion still would remain a simple colo provider.
