Required Credentials for a Media Pass
To qualify for a complimentary media pass, applicants must cover the IT industry on a regular basis and present bylined articles or reports published within the past six months. Publishers, marketing/PR professionals, and other sales or C-level non-media titles will not be accepted.
Media passes are not issued to those writing confidential content or content solicited by an exhibiting company. Private consultants paid by an individual company are not eligible for a media pass, and should request a pass from the sponsoring company.
Data Center World offers complimentary media passes for analysts/journalists to attend the event. By accepting the pass, analysts/journalists agree to write one article/blog/insight related to the event, at minimum.
Media credentials granted for previous Informa events do not guarantee a media pass to Data Center World. We reserve the right to refuse media badges. For additional information, please contact us.
