Il Messaggero has published an in-depth article on the strategic role of data centers in supporting the country’s digital growth, also highlighting the contribution of IDA – Italian Datacenter Association in promoting the development of these infrastructures.
In the feature, Sherif Rizkalla, President of IDA, stressed the need for concrete actions to boost Italy’s competitiveness:
“Italy needs to simplify and harmonize authorization procedures, ensure regulatory certainty, and strengthen energy availability. Data centers must be recognized as strategic infrastructure.”
These elements are essential to closing the gap with other European countries and supporting the digital transformation, which depends on reliable, secure and sustainable infrastructure. Data centers are not just physical spaces, but the technological backbone enabling digital services, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and innovation across all sectors.
