Last Friday, the team gathered in #Manchester to celebrate an incredible 2024 with our annual Christmas meal. We kicked things off with an amazing 3-wave set meal in a private room at Tattu – complete with dry ice cocktails and desserts. Afterwards, we continued the celebrations at 20 Stories. Special shoutouts to: 🎤Dom for delivering a stellar speech. 😂 Daniel Smith for rocking his Grinch jumper. 👏 Jordan for organising such a brilliant evening. 🎅 Matt McCluney for leaving on time and keeping his promise to behave (miracles at Christmas!) 💳 And, of course, Mark Richards for picking up the bill – true Christmas spirit!

Lunch with a view… sort of! 🌦️ A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for lunch to chat about our new #DataCentre build in #Manchester (#MCR2). While the weather didn’t exactly deliver on the 'view' part, it was great to hear people's thoughts on our heat reuse project, and the green credentials of our new data centre facility. We also had some interesting discussions about the impact of #AI in the data centre space. It’s always exciting to share our vision for sustainability and innovation, and we're looking forward to the next gathering. Read more ➡️➡️https://lnkd.in/gNE7kA2i #DataCentres #Colocation

Thanks Natalie Sinha for sharing your case study. The embodied carbon assessment at our new #MCR2 #DataCentre in #Manchester has been a fascinating process. While operational carbon gets much of the attention, understanding the emissions tied to materials - through extraction, manufacturing, transport, and even disposal - is crucial for a holistic approach to sustainable construction.
