A ccording to the data analysis specialist Arizton , the data centre / colocation market in EMEA was worth around US $ 14bn in 2019 . It ’ s a burgeoning market , driven by factors like the EU ’ s General Data Protection Regulation ( GDPR ) and rapid adoption of internet-based services among businesses in the Middle East and Africa region .
The Cap DC Group , a subsidiary of the leading French Cap Ingelec brings together local engineering firms in Southern Europe and Africa to build data centres to meet this demand , and has been ranked among the top 15 global data centre engineering firms by Arizton . While its core business is data centre engineering , increasingly it is offering its clients in southern Europe and francophone Africa the option of EPC or turnkey construction contracts , says its Managing Director Antonio Ríos Suanzes .
Antonio came on board in 2017 to set up the company ’ s headquarters in Madrid . In that time his team has grown to eight , turnover to € 5.5m , and revenue is targeted to reach € 10m by 2022 .
