Sustainability Focus

Paris's data center market is facing growing pressure from limited real estate and power availability. While it remains a key hub, power constraints are extending construction timelines and pushing operators to find sites further from the city center. This has made securing land and power a primary challenge for new investment.

AI Ready Facilities

The Paris data center market is seeing a surge in AI and HPC demands, driving new investment in hyperscale facilities. These workloads require a new generation of infrastructure with high-density racks, specialized chips, and advanced cooling, including liquid cooling. This shift is a key focus for Paris, positioning it as a hub for advanced computing in Europe.

Investment & Regulation

Paris is at the forefront of data center sustainability, with innovative solutions to combat environmental impact. Operators are leveraging technologies like waste heat reuse, which was famously used to heat the 2024 Olympic swimming pools. This, combined with a focus on 100% renewable energy, and pursuing a circular economy, positions the city as a leader in green digital infrastructure.

Natural Cooling Advantage

The Paris data center market is a top European hub, attracting billions in foreign investment. This growth, fueled by digitalization, AI, and cloud adoption, is supported by government initiatives. Major international players are expanding their presence, driving significant new hyperscale projects and cementing Paris's role as a leading digital hub.

DCN Milan is a first-class event - very well organized and reflective of Milan’s growth as a key data center hub. Top industry leaders and major suppliers are present, making it one of my favorite events in Europe.

This is my first time in Milan and I'm lucky enough to have been invited to speak at DCN today. It's a fantastic event! I am actually overwhelmed by the number of attendees at the event and the quality of the conferences that are here today

“It's very exciting to be in DCN Milan for the fourth time in 2025. It's a very exciting time. It's a demonstration of how DCN has believed in this market and how Milan is becoming the next member of the tier one platform in Europe.
