Overview

Join the London and South East Member Group for a rare opportunity to visit a fully operational Equinix data centre and see chemical engineering at the cutting edge of digital infrastructure.

This exclusive tour provides a first-hand look at how high-performance, interconnected data centres are designed and operated to support scalable, resilient digital infrastructure, and how chemical engineering contributes to energy-efficient performance and sustainability objectives.

Alongside the site visit, attendees will hear from experts on how data centre technology is evolving to address sustainability challenges associated with the growing demands of heat removal required to deliver optimal processing conditions. As processors themselves become more powerful in supporting new AI applications, these challenges are intensifying, driving the need for increasingly energy-efficient data centre design.
