Following the successful presence of six Luxembourg ICT actors at the Webhosting Day 2010, the number of Luxembourg businesses participating at the 2011 edition of the four-day conference and trade fair, now called Worldhosting Days, further increased.

Following the call of Luxembourg for Business-Proud to promote ICT and LU-CIX, not less than 8 other Luxembourgish actors joined the event as well, namely eBRC, Entreprise des Postes et Télécommunications, EuroDNS, GateSecure, LuxCloud, LuxConnect, SecureIT et Visual Online, allowing them to present their services and infrastructures to a large international public and get into contact with potential business partners.

With all the Luxembourgish booths gathered at one big central spot, right in the centre of the exhibition hall, the country was anything but unnoticed. Numerous visitors and companies from around the globe showed a deep interest in Luxembourg’s IT infrastructures.

Moreover, a panel discussion of 45 minutes was dedicated to Luxembourg. It was held on the 24th of March 2011, in the main hall of the conference center, for an audience of 200 professionals. With four Luxembourgish speakers, representing LU-CIX, LuxCloud, eBRC and SecureIT and presented by Luxembourg for Business, the discussion focused on a variety of topics, such as international connectivity, datacenter offers, legal framework, or the quality of life in Luxembourg.

Luxembourg’s attendance at the “Worldhosting Days” can therefore be seen as successful in terms of business contacts and for the promotion of Luxembourg as a leading ICT country in Europe.
