I had a fantastic evening representing Taylor Dodds at the DATACENTRE.ME Summer Event on 7th July. There was a great atmosphere and an excellent mix of people from across the data centre industry, making it a really good opportunity to catch up with familiar faces, make new connections and have some valuable conversations.
What really stands out about the DCME events is how naturally the networking flows. There’s a genuine sense of openness and collaboration, which makes it easy to meet people and build meaningful relationships.
A big thank you to the DCME team for putting on such a well organised and enjoyable event. I’m already looking forward to the next one.
It was a pleasure to attend and support the DCMe networking event in London last Tuesday, sponsored by Emtelle. The relaxed and informal setting created the perfect environment for bringing together industry colleagues, customers, and partners to connect, share ideas, and strengthen relationships.
The combination of great food, drinks, and engaging conversation made for an enjoyable evening, with plenty of opportunities to discuss the latest developments across digital infrastructure, connectivity, and data centres. Events like these demonstrate the value of face-to-face networking and the importance of building strong partnerships within our industry.
A big thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the evening such a success. Emtelle was proud to be a sponsor and part of such a well-attended and engaging event.
The DCME networking events continue to grow in both attendance and value, creating even more opportunities for meaningful conversations and networking.
For us, the main objective is brand awareness and visibility for the wider team, and the event delivered on that. Several members of our team attended, connected with new people and supply chain partners, and we’ve already followed up with contacts made on the day, showing the value these events bring beyond the event itself.
The atmosphere, organisation and service were all excellent, and we’d certainly look to attend future events again.
It is my first time attending DCME and it certainly won’t be my last. It was a great opportunity to meet with other professionals within the data centre space and put some faces to names! The event is very well organised, and well attended with a mix of clients, consultants and contractors offering a great relaxed environment for meeting and networking.
There was a great mix of sponsors who also attended the event, from which I have made some valuable connections.
Thank you again to the organisers for putting on such a great event. I look forward to attending the next one.

A big thank you to Ruth and all the DataCentreME Team for hosting another hugely successful event.
The spacious venue works really well and allows for good conversations to flow naturally.
For us it’s so important that our team can come along, meet familiar faces and engage with new people. Many of our newer people have commented on how welcoming it is, and more importantly how it is improving their confidence to build their own networks.
So it’s a big thank you from us for prodiving the forum for our teams to thrive.
Thank you Team DATACENTRE.ME for the excellent Spring Data Centre Networking event.
It was great to catch up with industry friends, suppliers and peers old and new, sharing insights into the world of Data Centre technologies and sharing experiences and knowledge.
As always at these events, there were plenty of networking opportunities with some drinks and food leading to a number of new contacts being made.
I look forward to attending a future DATACENTRE ME event and would highly recommend to others.
A big thank you to the DCME team and all of the event sponsors for hosting a fantastic networking event on 28th April. The evening was extremely well organised, professionally run, and created a great atmosphere for bringing together professionals from across the data centre industry.
It was particularly valuable for me to reconnect and engage with contacts from BMSI, Cold Clad, Zumtobel, BE Design, RED Engineering, and Kidde Fire, many of whom I had been meaning to catch up with. The event also provided an excellent opportunity to meet with a wider mix of suppliers, engineers, consultants, and industry specialists in a relaxed and engaging setting.
The quality of attendees and the openness of conversation made for a very productive evening, with several valuable discussions and new connections made throughout the event.
Thank you again to the DCME hosts and sponsors for continuing to create such worthwhile industry events. I look forward to attending future networking evenings.
It was really good. Been going for nearly 5 years and this was one of the best.
Always a pleasure to attend and a great place to connect and reconnect with industry peers. Well done DCME team and looking forward to the next one.
Great networking event for the Data Centre Industry in the UK.
I’ve been to a few DC.ME events now and they are a perfect place to mingle with friends and meet new people. Always relaxed, always well run and not oversubscribed, and always a good balance of clients and collaborators. Highly recommended.
Data Centre ME Spring Networking 2026 – another successful DCME Networking event. Thanks to the DCME team for hosting and the sponsors for making it happen. Always good to meet up with so many industry people whether making new contacts or catching up with familiar faces. Open and honest conversations and some genuine insights that you don’t get at your run of the mill DC conference.
I attended my first DCME event in April after hearing about it from colleagues. I found the event to be well organised, well attended and in a nice venue. What not to like!
The room was a good mix of clients, consultants and suppliers making for interesting conversations and market research. We’ll definitely be going again.
As a sponsor, the venue is ideal for this type of networking event and the quality of food and drink selection was also great.
The people who attended this event in July 2023 work for some of the well-known companies in the data centre industry and having the opportunity to make contact with multiple companies on the same evening is invaluable for us as a company.
We’ve already had a couple of really solid enquiries from this event which we are now following up on, so the event did create some fantastic interest in our company and the services we offer.
This is definitely an event I would recommend and it will be an event we here at Critical Business Solutions will attend and sponsor again in the future.
July 2025
It was a great opportunity to get familiar with the latest data centre innovations in cooling, power management, and infrastructure.
Overall, this event provides a fantastic learning experience and I would highly recommend it to everyone in the industry.
I look forward to attending in the future and continuing to stay updated on the latest trends in data centre technology.
I personally find the events to be very vibrant, well-organised, well-attended and full of like-minded industry professionals, with good opportunities available for networking. It is also great to see the representation of women in tech at the event growing over the years.
December 2023
I am relatively new to the DCME events, but those that I have attended I have found to be a pleasurable experience and a great ‘gathering of minds’.
I find the pre-event communication to be informative and well-timed. The event itself is a great opportunity to meet and network with others in the industry in a relaxed environment. It is a chance to learn how people are moving along and how we can help each other, building rapport and friendships along the way. You will find a great crowd of people you might already know, and also some new faces every time.
The venue is in a great location and the format is ideally suited to allowing a great flow of conversation with no gaps, for all present. In conclusion, a must attend face-to-face event for everyone in the data centre industry.

As an enthusiast about Data Centre construction, I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to network and meet industry professionals. The event was expertly organised, providing a platform for valuable discussions and connections. I had the pleasure of attending alongside Robert Elsworth, a true mission-critical leader in Faithful and Gould.
DCME’s event proved to be an invaluable resource for expanding my knowledge and staying up-to-date with the latest advancements in the industry. I highly recommend attending future events organised by DCME as they offer an excellent environment for like-minded individuals to come together and share insights. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of such a remarkable event!

This personal touch continued at the event itself – from registration, during the networking and on my departure.
There was a greater than expected number of like-minded guests at the event, all with experience and knowledge within the sector. The networking proved invaluable and thoroughly enjoyable, and I am very much looking forward to attending more events in the future.
I know from experience that these events involve a lot of hard work and dedication. My personal experience, and that of others, showed me just how much work the Team put into these events.
I’ve made many connections already, and look forward to building a strong professional relationship within the group. Many thanks to all involved.

It was great to speak to other people within the industry and catch up with a few people from the past. I am really looking forward to the next event.
Surprisingly (COVID-19 and temperature-related issues considered), it was very well attended and it was a great chance to (re)connect with many old and new peers in the industry – everyone I wanted to talk to was there. The food was tasty and I enjoyed a glass or two of wine as well. I was very glad to have made the effort and I’ve already put the next one in my calendar.
