Africa is recognised for its ability to leapfrog innovation, learn and adapt from global experiences. When it comes to data center and digital infrastructure operations and maintenance, however, there’s no shortcut or alternative to requirements and best practices.

Areas we’ll address include talent and skills, processes and unique requirements in context and more.
