“The Data Centres North exhibition has depth and quality of delegates. We were delighted to receive a number of leads for potential customers looking at gas based power systems for data centres in UK and in Ireland, which we would not have received if we weren’t present.” Alex Marshall, Group Marketing & Compliance Director, Clarke Energy

Many thanks for the opportunity to present AIMES perspective on the challenges of delivering digital services from data centres outside of London. As usual I enjoyed every aspect of the event, which was (also as usual) really well organised and delivered. The venue is tremendous and not having parking challenges is a big plus.

I was able to attend some very useful presentations and participate in some of the sessions as well as having the useful opportunities to network with other sector professionals in the breakout periods and over dinner. The dinner was very good indeed and the speaker provided some light relief to the business of the event. Michael Walker, Projects Director at AIMES

“Where else can you meet so many data centre focused people at the same time in the north of England? A great opportunity to catch up with colleagues in the industry and make new contacts. The gala dinner event provided a great platform to network and was expertly entertained by Gary Richardson.” Tom Glover, Director – CBRE Data Centre Solutions

“I have attended DataCentres North for the last 4 years. I like DataCentres North as it is more intimate and accessible delivering a welcoming atmosphere. The conference content is world class and directly relates to my needs and those facing my operation… over the years’ DataCentres North has assisted me in building a network of suppliers, service providers and industry experts who have had a positive contribution to pladis data centre operation. This years’ content was excellent and contacts made beneficial.” Lynsey Cartwright ,Global Enterprise Monitoring & Data Centre Manager – pladis
