Data Centres Council

ULI Product Councils are designed for industry leaders to meet, exchange ideas, share best practice and foster thought leadership in their sector-specific sector of the real estate market.

Accelerated by the pandemic, the focus on alternative real estate sectors has significantly increased over recent years, especially those closely linked to technology, such as data centres. “One distinct trend this year is the focus on alternatives – those sectors outside the traditional big three of office, retail, and industrial. Survey respondents predict equity and debt will be most plentiful for alternative real estate asset classes, while beds-based asset classes – alongside sectors like… data centres …– dominate the top of the sector rankings… Data centres are perceived as the most promising sector in terms of both their income profile and development potential.” – Emerging Trends in Real Estate – Europe 2022

The ULI Data Centres Council includes senior level representatives from a range of companies active in the field of data centres, including operators, developers, architects and investors from around the world. The forum’s purpose is to provide an open conversation about current trends, e.g. related to technology, ESG and location, as well as the outlook for the industry. The council is global and meets in a virtual format. Click here for more information.
