Chilled water distribution systems can be complex and difficult to manage. 

Join Grundfos to explore an alternative means of distributing chilled water for hybrid cooling in the data centre environment, delivering energy savings, overcoming balancing issues, and giving greater control over differential temperature. 

Distributed Pumping is a paradigm shift towards decentralised pumping.

Speaker:

• Liam Mc Dermott, Sales Development Manager, Grundfos

Data centers are at the heart of our digital world, and reliable, efficient power solutions are critical to their growth. This session explores the latest innovations in power management, energy efficiency, and grid-flexible solutions, highlighting how advanced backup power systems can support scalable, sustainable, and future-ready digital infrastructure.

Speaker:

• Helle Herk-Hansen, Vice President, Environment, Vattenfall

Data centers are tripling electricity demand amid volatile, renewable heavy grids and tighter interconnection regulations.  This session explores how grid-interactive UPS systems, intelligent microgrids and under frequency load shedding (UFLS) support fast frequency response, peak shaving and resilience without risking uptime. heavy grids and tighter interconnection rinteractive UPSqualityfriendly partners—supporting frequency response, peak shaving and resilience without risking uptime.  

Speaker:

• Marco Nardi, Business Development Manager Critical Power Systems, Eaton

The rapid rise of AI-driven data centers is pushing energy infrastructure to its limits.

Two critical bottlenecks are emerging: access to sufficient power—fast—and ensuring the stability and quality that advanced computing demands.

Off-grid power supply is redefining how data centers can be deployed—delivering energy faster, with greater control over quality, and without the constraints of traditional infrastructure.

By eliminating grid dependency, it addresses transient disruptions and instability at their source.

We present a direct, behind-the-meter pathway to resilient, high-performance power—unlocking new possibilities for scaling AI infrastructure where and when it’s needed most

• Frank Berner, Area Sales Manager, Piller Germany GmbH & Co.KG

In operationally critical data centers, doors are designed for heavy daily use.

In this keynote, you’ll hear DAN doors’ perspective and solution on oversized user friendly, certified access.

Because reliability starts with doors that work in real world operations.

Speaker:

• Jesper Aablad, CEO, Dan-doors A/S

Data centers are at the forefront of the energy transition, balancing the need for high-performance digital infrastructure with sustainability and net-zero ambitions. This session explores how operators can leverage innovative energy strategies, decentralised systems, electrification, and alternative fuels to optimise operations, reduce carbon emissions, and drive long-term resilience.

Speaker: 

• Aiden Cawley,Senior Business Leader, Electrification and Automation, Siemens Great Britian & Ireland

In a world where data centers are the heart of digital transformation, it is no longer only about the physical facilities – it is about what we put inside them. At Dell, we are dedicated to designing data centers that not only meet today’s needs but also address the challenges of tomorrow. With the theme Secure by Design, we explore how security, advanced technologies, and innovative services can be integrated into the design from day one. We examine how to create solutions that deliver real results and value. Join us on a journey where we bridge technology, services, and the demands of the future – setting the standard for how data centers can be secure, efficient, and future-ready.

Speaker:

• Poul Kjeldgaard, Field CTO, Dell 

At Data Centers Denmark 2026, Erik will show how companies can connect to DE-CIX's services in the Nordic region and what is required in practice to achieve better performance, greater robustness, and more control over traffic flow. The focus is on specific connection options and architecture patterns: how to choose the right interconnect model, how to think about redundancy and geographic diversity, and how to build a solution that is both scalable and cost-effective over time.

Data centers in Denmark can thus become an important AI player, which, for example, leads to German customers who want to expand their data center solutions in Denmark.

Speaker:

• Kaj Kjellgren, Senior Peering Consultant, Global and Nordics, DE-CIX

We’re in the midst of an AI revolution—reshaping how we live and redefining how data centers are designed and operated. The pace is relentless, and attention is already shifting to the next disrupting technology: quantum computing.

Quantum computing and sensing are compelling—but often misunderstood. Moving from hype to real impact requires confronting hard realities: scaling from 100 so-called qubits to 100 million and integrating classical HPC with quantum systems.

The leaders of the next decade won’t wait—they’ll prepare. Discover how global research is closing the scalability gap, and what enterprises must do now to secure their post-quantum future—from cryptography to digital identity.
