"A great reminder of the power of strong partnerships driving innovation"
We kicked things off bright and early at the event, held with the teams from Equinix and Pure Storage. Our Partner guests arrived for networking and breakfast, which provided a relaxed start before the main sessions.
Post-breakfast, David Lewis, Channel Lead at Pure Storage, delivered a compelling presentation on “How can leveraging cloud-adjacent storage enhance your customer’s performance?”.
Following that, the morning included a session exploring what “Platform Equinix” looks like in real life with Equinix's Matt George emphasising the relevance to their customers' future.
Data Centre Tour
At 11:30am we moved into the highlight of the day: a full guided tour of the LD6 IBX Equinix data centre. Among the most impressive moments: seeing how infrastructure, connectivity and digital ecosystems physically converge - exactly the kind of “cloud-adjacent” environment the morning sessions set up.
Lunch + Networking
After the tour, around 12:30pm, everyone reconvened in the main boardroom for lunch. This was more than just a meal - it was a chance to continue the conversations, ask deeper questions, and network with peers and the Arrow, Equinix and Pure Storage teams.
