Vertiv™ 360AI brings power, cooling and services together in pre-engineered solutions designed to reduce deployment time by up to 50% compared with traditional infrastructure installation
DUBAI, UAE [Oct. 26, 2026] – As AI capacity expands across the Gulf, the infrastructure challenge is increasingly about more than supporting higher densities. It is about how quickly power, cooling and IT infrastructure can be designed, integrated and brought online.
At DCD>Connect | MENA 2026, Vertiv Holdings Co. (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, will demonstrate its approach to that challenge through converged physical infrastructure, integrating power, thermal management, IT infrastructure and digital services at the system level. Vertiv will participate as a Mega Partner at the event, taking 26-27 October 2026 at Grand Hyatt Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
"DCD>Connect | MENA is an important platform for engaging with the region's data center ecosystem as AI adoption accelerates," said Tassos Peppas, Regional Director, Middle East, Southeast Europe, Turkey and Central Asia at Vertiv. "We see AI as a long-term, secular trend and we are accelerating our capacity expansions to enable growth and meet our customer’s demands. The AI revolution requires infrastructure that works as an integrated system, from grid to chip, enabling customers to deploy high-density capacity and scale with confidence.”
At the event, Vertiv will feature Vertiv™ 360AI, its portfolio of pre-engineered power, cooling and service solutions for AI infrastructure. The approach can reduce deployment time by up to 50% compared with traditional stick-build methods. Drawing on Vertiv's expertise in power, thermal management, IT systems and remote management, the portfolio provides an infrastructure foundation designed to scale with future generations of compute.
“Operators across the Gulf are moving from planning to delivery on AI capacity, and speed of deployment is now a deciding factor," said Phil Cullerton, Senior Vice President, Managing Director – Middle East & EMEA Service at Vertiv. "Our teams in the region work with customers from design through operation, and our converged approach means power, cooling and IT infrastructure are delivered as one tested system rather than separate packages.”
Vertiv will also contribute to the DCD>Connect | MENA 2026 conference program with two speaking sessions: a fireside chat featuring Tassos Peppas, alongside Kenny Scott, CEO, Edge-Serve, and a 5x5 lightning pitch by Ivan Kuts, EMEA Solutions Architect at Vertiv, on how converged physical infrastructure is redefining the speed and efficiency of AI-ready data center deployment.
