Join us for a spectacular evening as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of FDCA!

Back in 2014, a few of us data center enthusiasts met at Wanha Satama. With just coffee, a notebook, and dreams of ISO standards, we launched what became FDCA. Simple beginnings, big impact!

We’ve grown from a small initiative to a driving force in our field, and we want to commemorate this milestone with all who have been part of our journey.

The gala dinner will feature:

  • A walk through FDCA’s history
  • Special guest speakers sharing their experiences and visions for the future
  • Recognition ceremony
  • Live entertainment
  • Networking opportunities with industry leaders and longtime supporters

Dress code: Black tie. For women, a long evening gown or an elegant cocktail dress.

 

We offer flexible attendance options for our gala:

  1. Individual tickets: Perfect for those attending solo or in small groups.
