Andy Davis Named in Datacloud’s Power 50 List of Industry Trailblazers
We’re proud to share that Andy Davis, Director at DataX Connect and host of the Inside Data Centre Podcast, has been named in the Datacloud Global Power 50 – a list that recognises 50 of the most influential figures shaping the future of the data center industry.
The Power 50 highlights leaders and innovators who are driving progress in infrastructure, sustainability, talent, and technology across the global data center ecosystem. To see Andy’s name included alongside such a respected group of industry professionals is both exciting and humbling.
But for Andy, the recognition is about more than individual achievement.
“I still can’t quite believe my name is included in the Datacloud Power 50, a list of the most influential people shaping the future of data centres. I never set out to be influential; I just wanted to give people a voice. A platform where every voice could be heard. To now be recognised alongside those at the forefront of the digital revolution, people genuinely changing the world, is both a privilege and a complete surprise.” – Andy Davis
