ITW Global

 

It's not just the data centre operators, it's not just the neoclouds, and it's not just the CSPs - it's all of them all at once. Not only can we meet with them individually, but they partner with each other, so we can have joint meetings with multiple customers in the same location.
Rob Shore
Head of Optical Solutions Marketing |  Nokia

 


 

It all depends on connectivity.

AI, cloud and data centres are driving infrastructure demand. None of it works without the networks connecting data, infrastructure and customers around the world.

ITW Global brings that whole ecosystem together, with connectivity at its centre.

An event for the whole team.

ITW Global is the kind of event you bring a whole squad to.

The breadth and depth of attendees make it the meeting place for the whole world of connectivity - and with group discounts starting at 3 attendees and up, a big presence makes financial sense, too.

Use the tool to your right to assess which colleagues need to make it onto your company's ITW Global team for 2027.


 

This is where they grow their business

"You can map out a network strategy on a whiteboard, but the real pipeline gets built in the room. ITW 2026 brought thousands of the industry's sharpest minds to Gaylord National Harbor Convention Center, and the Telstra International and Telstra InfraCo teams showed up ready to work. The team held 240+ meetings, opened new doors across emerging customer segments, strengthened strategic partnerships for future investment, and built further momentum across our ecosystem of capabilities."

Telstra

"It's been an incredibly productive event - we've held nearly 300 meetings with customers and partners, reinforcing just how strong the demand is for reliable, scalable digital infrastructure. It's been fantastic to see our team in action - bringing energy, expertise and a real passion for what we do. Safe to say, the whole crew has a great time connecting, learning, and strengthening relationships. Looking forward to building on these conversations in the months ahead."

Colt

"There are more and more different participants coming here – we see a lot of hyperscalers also joining. All the people who are really driving the industry forward are here."
