Inside Data Centre Podcast Live in Cannes! Datacloud Global Congress Unplugged: Behind this Record-Breaking Year
It's our final edition on the Inside Data Centre Podcast at Datacloud Global Congress, Cannes 2025!
Our hosts, Andy Davis and Rory Flashman, are joined by Annabel Helm, Managing Director of Datacloud (techoraco), and Lex Coors, Chief Data Centre Technology and Engineering Officer at Digital Realty and President at EUDCA, to celebrate the final day at the three-day event! From the foundation of organisation, researching speakers and adapting to quick changes, this episode highlights the success of the event, with 45% more people joining the conversation than last year, and 12,000 data centre representatives attending. They discuss why the industry return to the event every year – growth and getting ahead of the curve, especially with regards to talent, helps to inspire the next generation, and a different sense of perception of the industry (colouring is the new hobby!)
Some key advice from Lex Coors on being in the sector:
“Make sure you develop yourself and people around you and with you, and also this will be the core of the industry where people will have the knowledge, the title and are seen by that title”.
