Tim Anker of Colo-XWith the UK being Colo-X’s primary market, we are especially pleased to be a Strategic Partner to Platform UK, the only specialist data centre event focused on the UK data centre market. The 2026 event is in London on 25 February at Convene, 22 Bishopsgate.


I’ll be chairing a panel looking at growth opportunities away from London – and with Scotland, the Humber, Manchester, Blackpool and the Midlands all participating in the session, it should be an interesting one.

My session takes place at 12.20, and I’ll be in the company of:

• Mark Wilson, CEO, ILI Group
• Jon Baty, Head of Inward Investment, West Midlands Growth Company
• Sam Matthew, COO, Greystoke
• Jamie Shaw-Stewart, Head of Silicon Sands, Blackpool Council
• John Duncan, Connected Places Lead, Greater Manchester Combined Authority

Platform UK is attended by the UK’s leading investors, operators, government figures and leaders in the digital infrastructure and data centre sector. The event has doubled in size in the last two years, and I am excited to attend again .
