Fireside chat: The African data center market - What is the reality on the ground?

This broadcast will be streaming live at 10am BST on the 13th July

Africa’s digital infrastructure has lagged behind the rest of the world due to lack of investment and challenges facing the continent, but could we be seeing this change? As the African data center growth is expected to hit double digits in the coming years and we are seeing a shift from broadband to increased cloud usage, the infrastructure to support this is essential. As companies start to see the opportunities the continent could offer, could we be at a turning point?

This episode will pinpoint the key markets to keep an eye on such as South Africa and Nigeria, as well as new opportunities across other emerging countries. Join industry experts as they highlight the opportunities and challenges facing those looking to move onto the continent as we see the move to Africa to become a global player.
