Nominations now open for the techUK Data Centres Council

techUK's Data Centres Council is the leadership body that works with the Data Centres Programme to:

  1. Steer the Data Centres Programme, agree on priorities for action, engage with the resulting Working Groups;

  2. Define the policy responses required for a given issue – wider programme member views will also be sought;

  3. Bring focus to our data centres policy work and act as the first port of call for engagement with high-profile stakeholders; and 

  4. Represent the interests of the broader membership.

This is an excellent opportunity to help shape the Data Centres Programme priorities and be part of a platform for both thought leadership and driving forward valuable relationships with key stakeholders, including key Government Departments and Regulators – as well as working with the wider tech industry to transform the sector.
