Staying Ahead of Emerging Hazards in Data Centres – Europe & the Middle East
Staying Ahead of Emerging Hazards in Data Centres in Europe and the Middle East
Roundtable: Data Centre Fire Safety
As data centres in Europe and the Middle East expand and evolve, fire protection experts face a growing set of challenges. High energy densities, complex equipment, 24/7 operations, and emerging technologies such as modern backup power sources (such as Lithium-ion) are stretching traditional fire safety approaches and regulatory frameworks.
This live roundtable brings together leading Jensen Hughes fire engineers, code consultants, and system designers to share practical insights on how these challenges are being considered and mitigated, from initial design through to implementation and approval.
From navigating regional regulatory environments to designing robust fire protection systems optimised for operational continuity, this session will help professionals understand both the risks and solutions being applied across mission-critical facilities in Europe and the Middle East.
Join us to hear directly from experts at the forefront of mission-critical projects and discover insights into emerging challenges in data centre fire safety.
