Connecting enterprise, telco, hyperscale & data centre visionaries for an edge enabled world
Organised in accordance with Informa AllSecure Health & Safety Standard
The Edge Event 2021 will be organised in accordance with Informa's AllSecure health and safety standard. As the world's leading events organiser, Informa has developed a detailed set of enhanced measures to provide the highest levels of hygiene and safety at its events, providing everyone with reassurance and confidence they are participating in a safe and controlled environment.
WHAT IS THE EDGE EVENT?
The new decade has been earmarked as a key turning point for edge computing and those already in the know are anticipating an explosion of edge interest, deployments and solutions. That's where The Edge Event comes in.
The Edge Event gathered enterprises, telcos, data centre operators, cloud service providers, analysts and an array of edge and IoT solution providers all looking to claim their place at the edge. The whole edge ecosystem came together for the first time for 3 days of innovation, networking and discussions to define the future of edge computing.
The Edge Event is supported and built by the industry, guided by our expert team across Omdia and Informa Tech, as well as our knowledgeable Edge Advisory Board.

THE TIME IS RIGHT FOR THE EDGE
Enterprises
With the explosion of IoT devices in use across multiple industries, enterprises need an increasingly distributed and flexible network infrastructure to manage their data. Edge computing meets this requirement and unlocks the true value of IoT.
Telcos
The telcos need to decide to invest in edge services and should be focusing on specific use cases, a strategic set of ecosystem partners, and business models that are realistic for their business and relationship with their customers.
Data Centre Operators
Their focus should be on customers and providers that need access to immediately adjacent infrastructure assets. Cloud providers will eventually include many SaaS providers that aim to extend applications to the edge, with many hybrid alternatives.
Speakers from across the ecosystem
WHAT WILL THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 LOOK LIKE ACROSS THE CLOUD & DATA CENTRE ECOSYSTEM?
To help inform our community at this uncertain time, the Edge Event is delighted to offer free access to this new Omdia report, which examines the market impact of COVID-19, specifically on the data center pillar of the ecosystem.
"The distribution of compute to the edge (Enterprise, Telco, and Cloud SP), partially enabled by the 5G roll-out, to serve low latency and low bandwidth use cases is driving new innovations in computing and networking. The Edge Event is set to become one of the most important hubs for the global edge community - a place where the industry can collaborate to help meet the needs of the evolving edge ecosystem"
Introducing: The Edge Event Advisory Board
Our advisory board of edge leaders are busy curating an agenda designed to answer the key questions for enterprises who are looking take their first step into the edge, as well as to consider complex technical questions around edge deployment for industry experts.
