techoraco, the trusted provider of large-scale international networking events, has partnered with Spa Communications, an award-winning PR, social media and content marketing agency for B2B technology, sustainability, and digital infrastructure businesses, to support its media relations strategy for its 2024 Capacity Europe event. As part of its work, Spa has been tasked with building brand awareness, establishing new media partnerships and securing journalists from a host of national and business titles to join the event.

The event brings together the entire connectivity and digital infrastructure ecosystem – from the submarine cable operators that bring data across continents to the NaaS and software solution providers that help to secure, automate and remotely operate increasingly complex network infrastructure.

The 2024 event, which takes place on 15th-17th October, will see over 3,000 senior decision-makers gather at Intercontinental at the O2 to network, and gain fresh insights from global leaders including AWS, Nokia, Deutsche Telekom, Equinix and Connectbase.

“Capacity Europe is the premier event for Europe for Connectbase. We find the ecosystem that comes together at the event second to none and an opportunity to learn, engage and work collaboratively with our partners across Europe”. Ben Edmond CEO and founder of Connectbase

Capacity Europe is a well-established global hub, with connectivity providers across the Middle East, Asia, USA, Africa and Latin America joining to renew and establish agreements with their European partners.

Digital infrastructure is converging, and there is a need for better collaboration and partnerships between fibre, data centre, subsea, satellite, and software services to serve future digital economies. This means Capacity Europe has evolved from being the largest gathering of network operators to a critical touch point for all connectivity enablers.

To officially open the event, Didem Ün Ateş, Chief Executive, Lotus AI will give an inspirational keynote talk about the potential of AI to fundamentally change the connectivity industry.

Across the event, other speakers include Gustavo Carvalho, Chief Customer Operations & Technology Officer - TELEFÓNICA GLOBAL SOLUTIONS, Patrick George, CEO, iBASIS and Jean-Louis Le Roux, EVP International Network Infrastructure & Services - ORANGE, Jennifer Smith, CFO, Zayo Europe, and Ilona Koprowska, Network Site Investment – META.

“Capacity Europe brings together senior executives and decision-makers from across Europe and beyond, reflecting the diverse regions where RETN operates. As a business focused on connectivity, the conference is essential because it connects people, ideas, and opportunities to build the future of digital communication.”

Olena Lutsenko, Business Development Director at RETN

This year the show welcomes 20% diverse speakers to the stages, with 60+ new speakers added to the agenda. This reflects the team’s commitment to give a voice to emerging talent from a wider range of geographies and represent the evolving digital infrastructure ecosystem.
