DCD>Connect London is Europe’s largest DCD event and one of the two defining anchor shows on the European data center calendar (alongside Datacloud Cannes). The Business Design Centre hosts 4,000+ attendees and 200+ exhibitors across two days, with a senior operator audience that skews toward directors and VPs of infrastructure at hyperscalers, colocation operators, enterprise owners, and the technical specifiers around them.

London’s content agenda tends to be where the European industry works out its shared positions: how UK planning and grid-connection reform is playing out, how Irish moratoria are reshaping European interconnect, how European AI workload growth is distributing across Nordic, Iberian, and Central European markets, and what the next phase of liquid cooling deployment looks like at production scale.

Attend if you have European operations, supply European buyers, or want the clearest annual snapshot of where UK and broader European data center policy and technology are heading. The show’s size and the informal reception circuit around it also make it the single most efficient week for European business development.
