With 13 award categories, the DatacenterDynamics EMEA awards celebrate data center projects of all sizes, from the biggest to the greenest and best across all sectors with many hundreds of great entries.

The DatacenterDynamics Awards has been often referred to as the ‘Oscars’ of our industry – and it is! The ceremony gives us a great night out, we mix with the most talented people in the greatest industry in the world and it is a highlight in the data center calendar. To even be nominated to this level is a great honor and real recognition from your peers.

The DatacenterDynamics Awards is your chance to showcase the professionalism and ingenuity of your organization and your teams.

The awards always uncover remarkable stories of real success and achievement that the industry needs to hear about - and this Awards programme is central to that process: it is about your organizations, your teams and the individuals in your companies who make this industry special.

DatacenterDynamics is delighted and proud to announce the finalists for the 2014 EMEA Awards. The DatacenterDynamics Awards recognizes innovation, leadership and best practice. We celebrate what is great in our industry while never forgetting the most important question; how can we make it better?

We will crown Winners at our Gala Ceremony in London on 11th December. Over 600 industry professionals will convene for our black tie dinner and help us to celebrate the shared successes of the EMEA data center market.

To join us at our Gala Dinner, at the Lancaster Hotel London on 11 December, see details here.
