To understand how to facilitate a sustainable transformation , we turn to the experts at Equinix to uncover the steps along the journey .
Grace Andrews , Principal Product Evangelist at Equinix , delves into the organisation ’ s mission and how it approaches digital transformation .
“ Equinix is the world ’ s digital infrastructure company . Platform Equinix provides the foundational infrastructure — data centres , interconnection , and digital infrastructure services — that power the digital economy .
“ We ’ ve transformed Equinix from a colocation provider to a digital infrastructure platform , which supports the digital transformation of our customers .
“ During the pandemic , we saw unprecedented demand for digital services . Platform Equinix , with vibrant digital ecosystems and foundational infrastructure enabled via software , meets the needs of customers who now operate in a highly virtualized world .
“ The coronavirus pandemic fundamentally , and in some cases permanently , changed the way we work , the way we educate our children , the way we interact with family , the way we shop and entertain ourselves … Enabling this digital transformation is what we do .

“ We have a duty and the capability to help organisations achieve digital transformation in a way that supports our collective and individual climate goals .”
