Selling data centres in London

Thursday there is a reception in the Norwegian Embassy in London to promote and look for investors to the new fibre cable between Rogaland and Newcastle and to tell British companies about the possibilities for locating their data centres in Western Norway.

Here are the data centre locations and sites in Greater Bergen. 

Connecting NO-UK

The connectivity to the rest of the world is crucial for data centres therefore it is so important to get the new direct fibre connection from Western Norway to UK that is under realisation, the NO-UK Com, fibre cable.

– Bergen is just a two hours flight from London. The region offers renewable energy from hydropower, redundant data transport with good latency and commercial areas ready for your data centre. Here you will find both brownfield for building your data centre and suitable existing buildings suitable for data centres. Recent changes in the Norwegian Tax Act has now opened up for data centre establishments. We think the timing is perfect for launching our data centre alternatives now, says Vidar Totland in Invest in Bergen.
