How Was Data Center World Europe?

Drawing on 45 years of industry leadership, we brought Data Center World, the global epicenter for data centre innovation, to Europe.

On 13-15 October, Data Center World Europe tackled the industry’s most urgent challenge: transforming Europe's data centre energy landscape. The event brought together leading operators, technologists, cloud providers, hyperscalers, and innovators to exchange actionable strategies and groundbreaking insights that drive measurable results.

Strategically positioned in the heart of Europe, Data Center World Europe connected the fast-growing, established data centre markets of Western Europe with the dynamic and fast-growing Central and Eastern European markets, where opportunities and new ideas are flourishing.
