DCS AWARDS 2022

Following on from the huge success of the DCS Awards 2021, we’re delighted to be launching our 2022 Awards. So soon? Well, yes, pre-Covid, the DCS Awards always took place in May or June. During the pandemic, we had a virtual awards, and then we moved the 2021 event to the end of the year, to ensure that everyone could, once again, meet up to celebrate the great and good of the industry.

Now that it seems we are returning to something like normality, we think it’s time to return the DCS Awards to their rightful place in the calendar, May 2022

We’ve made a few changes to the awards categories to reflect industry changes, but what we haven’t changed is the successful formula that sees several hundred nominations, which are then turned into a short list for voting, and culminate in a great evening in London, where the winners are acclaimed and the industry gets together for a great night of eating, drinking, comedy and celebrating.

So, it’s time to plan your nominations

As ever, we’re looking to recognise and congratulate data centre industry innovation – whether it be projects, products, services or corporate or individual excellence. The Awards’ categories cover both the facilities and IT aspects of the data centre, reflecting the gradual convergence of the two disciplines as a prerequisite for digital transformation. The achievements of vendors, their business partners, staff and customers are the focus of the 30 Awards categories. HOW CAN YOU BE INVOLVED? Right now, it’s time to get nominating! Whether you want to nominate your own company, staff members and/or customers, we’re sure there’s at least one category which is just right for you across the 30 project, innovation and various other categories. It’s also a good time to look at our sponsorship and marketing opportunities, as they work alongside the nomination and voting process. The sooner you’re involved, the sooner we can start promoting your company. You’ll see we have a range of packages, and we’re confident that the innovations we introduced as part of the virtual awards will continue to add value ahead of this year’s physical event. So, zoom interviews, extensive social media promotion, magazine interviews all offer great visibility, alongside the more obvious marketing activities on the Awards’ website itself, and the associated marketing email campaign. Finally, while May 2022 might seem a long way away, make sure you put the date in your diary and make sure to reserve a table.
