Nairobi, Kenya [September 09, 2025] – Vertiv, a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, is proud to announce its participation as a bronze sponsor at the upcoming connectivity-focused event, International Telecoms Week (ITW) Africa 2025. Taking place between 09 and 11 September 2025 at the Radisson Blu in Upper Hill, Nairobi, event organisers expect to draw in hundreds of participants from all over Africa and will include key players within the connectivity and digital infrastructure space.
Vertiv’s ITW Africa booth will showcase its modular, energy-efficient power and cooling systems, developed to meet the operational and environmental needs of African businesses. In particular, the company will present its latest integrated solutions offering, including prefabricated rack, row, aisle, and modular data centres. Vertiv will have on display a model of its Vertiv™ SmartAisle, a pre-engineered data centre infrastructure solution, complete with power, cooling and all of the critical components required to support data centre availability.
In addition, Wojtek Piorko, managing director for Africa at Vertiv, will join an ITW Africa panel, delving into the topic of ‘Building a sustainable data centre: Driving operational efficiencies.’
During the session, Piorko and the other panellists will discuss why building eco-conscious and efficient data centres has become critical to meeting the expectations of customers; both local and international. They will also explore the innovative strategies and solutions being implemented to enable the next generation of African data centres to meet required operational standards, including the modernisation of those already built.
“As digital transformation accelerates across Africa, reliable communications networks have become just as critical as data centres in providing connectivity and growth,” says Piorko. “At Vertiv, our solutions are designed to support both with energy efficiency, resilience and scalability. ITW Africa is a key platform for us to engage with the African carriers, ISPs, hyperscalers and data centre owners who are driving this progress, and we look forward to sharing how Vertiv is helping to build the robust, future-ready infrastructure that Africa needs.”
