“Beyond the immediate benefits in terms of the digital offering, the agreement goes far beyond a mere commercial understanding: first, it strengthens the foundation for developing Italtel’s expertise on Equinix through dedicated training programs. Secondly, it leads to a broad collaboration that will extend to joint go-to-market and innovation initiatives: new certification and upskilling initiatives targeted at Italtel professionals will further strengthen their expertise on Equinix, ensuring that the teams have the necessary capabilities to address increasingly complex technological challenges, thereby ensuring excellent end-service for clients.", commented Claudia Vegni, Sales Director of Equinix Italy.
