We are proud to announce that Green Mountain CEO, Tor Kristian Gyland, has been honored with the Data Centre Solutions’ “Data Centre Industry Contribution of the year” award 2020. This is an award recognizing an individual who has made a significant contribution to the data center industry in EMEA. Gyland was nominated for his immense contribution in building and promoting Norway as a data center location.
“I am truly honored to win this Industry Contribution Award. Especially since the winners are chosen by voting.” says Gyland. The winners of the DCS awards are voted for in their thousands by the readers of Data Centre Solutions, Digitalisation World, members of the Data Centre Alliance as well as peers, clients, and other aspects of the supply chain. “It also shows that the industry is recognizing the great development that is happening in the Norwegian DC industry”, Gyland continues. It is only in the recent years the industry has opened its eyes towards Norway as a data center location. From being “too far away, too complicated, too immature”, this region is now a rising star. Offering a value proposition of green energy, low power costs and stable framework conditions.
