Over 600 information technology and data center industry professionals are expected to come together at W.Media’s Greater Bay Area Cloud & Datacenter Convention. The day long event will be held at the Kowloon Shangri-La Hotel in Hong Kong on May 28, 2025.
As a pivotal hub for data centers and cloud computing in Asia, Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area (GBA) are uniquely positioned to lead the charge toward a sustainable digital future. The region is witnessing a surge in data center investments, driven by the growing demand for interconnected services and solutions. This growth is further fueled by mainland China’s need for reliable cross-border cloud services, reinforcing the importance of Hong Kong and the GBA in the global cloud ecosystem.
Among the attendees and speakers will be the who’s who of the vibrant digital infrastructure industry such as C-level executives, key buyers, decision makers, data center owners and operators, architects, engineers, consultants, academicians, researchers, veterans and experts. We have a stellar line up of speakers who will share their vision and wisdom during a series of presentations, keynote addresses and panel discussions that will be held through the day.
Our first panel discussion will see Kevin Wang (General Manager – IDC and AI, China Telecom Global), Marcello Brescia (Head of OTT, HGC Global Communications), James Gong (Legal Director, Bird & Bird) and Jackal Chau (Senior Vice President – Solutions and Service Delivery, HKBN Enterprise Solutions) come together to take a closer look at cross-border Cloud services. The panel will be moderated by Teresa Tan (Content Manager, DC Byte).
In another power-packed session, Jack Ko (Chief Executive Officer, Keystone Group) will moderate a panel discussion between Ben Li (Senior Director, Data Center Operations, Equinix), Dean Jones (Business Unit Director, North Asia, CBRE Data Centre Solutions) and Liu Eric Yang (Managing Director of Hong Kong, Global Switch) on revolutionizing data center operations using AI and automation.
Industry watchers and experts like Rosanna Tang (Executive Director, Head of Research Cushman & Wakefield), Andrew Green (Regional Data Centre Practice Lead APAC, JLL) and Philip Hu (Managing Director, North Asia, Uptime Institute) will also share their insights and observations at the event.
“This year’s Greater Bay Area Cloud & Datacenter Convention is more than just a gathering – it’s a catalyst for innovation and collaboration,” says Garris Lo, Commercial Director, Northeast Asia, W.Media. “As the Greater Bay Area continues to emerge as a leading innovation hub and a key market for cloud and data center development, this event brings together visionary speakers and industry leaders to spotlight groundbreaking advances driving Northeast Asia’s digital infrastructure. The region’s unique blend of cutting-edge technology, vibrant economic growth, and strategic positioning is fueling a surge in demand for scalable and sustainable digital infrastructure.
