CULTURAL IMPACT

“ We’ re really trying to accelerate and push the outreach to people who don’ t have opportunities. I want everybody to have the opportunity … to come and work for us and come into the data centre industry”

JOHN ELAND, CEO EMEA, STACK INFRASTRUCTURE
“ It also allows us now, particularly with Blue Owl behind us, to hone in and focus on the hyperscale clients and requirements driving that real expansion-of-scale business.
“ For me and my executive management team, it allows us to be exclusively focused on delivering for hyperscale rather than having one eye on the enterprise colo clients. It’ s a strategic decision that makes business sense and makes sense for all stakeholder groups. It’ s a good deal all around.”
Social impact as a core value For John, social impact is not a tickbox exercise but a core part of STACK’ s mission. He is passionate about giving back to the communities where the company operates, particularly as the data centre industry continues to grow at an unprecedented rate.
