As AI capacity expands across the Gulf, Vertiv 360AI brings together power, cooling and services in pre-engineered solutions designed to reduce AI infrastructure deployment time by up to 50% compared with traditional installation methods.

At DCD>Connect | MENA 2026, Vertiv Holdings Co. (NYSE: VRT) will showcase its converged physical infrastructure approach, integrating power, thermal management, IT infrastructure and digital services. The company will participate as a Mega Partner at the event, taking place on October 26 and 27 at Grand Hyatt Dubai in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

“DCD>Connect | MENA is an important platform for engaging with the region’s data center ecosystem as AI adoption accelerates,” said Tassos Peppas, Regional Director, Middle East, Southeast Europe, Turkey and Central Asia at Vertiv.

He added that Vertiv views AI as a long-term trend and is expanding its capacity to support growth and customer demand. He also highlighted the need for integrated infrastructure that connects the grid to the chip, enabling operators to deploy high-density computing capacity and scale with confidence.

At the event, Vertiv will feature Vertiv™ 360AI, a portfolio of pre-engineered power, cooling and service solutions for AI infrastructure.

The portfolio draws on Vertiv’s capabilities in power, thermal management, IT systems and remote management. It is designed to provide an infrastructure foundation that can accommodate future generations of computing while reducing deployment time by up to 50% compared with traditional stick-build methods.

“Operators across the Gulf are moving from planning to delivery on AI capacity, and speed of deployment is now a deciding factor,” said Phil Cullerton, Senior Vice President, Managing Director, Middle East and EMEA Service at Vertiv.

Cullerton said Vertiv’s regional teams work with customers from design through operation. He added that the company’s converged approach integrates power, cooling and IT infrastructure into one tested system rather than delivering them as separate packages.

Vertiv will also participate in the DCD>Connect | MENA 2026 conference programme through two speaking sessions. The first will be a fireside chat featuring Tassos Peppas alongside Kenny Scott, CEO of Edge-Serve. The second will be a 5×5 lightning pitch by Ivan Kuts, EMEA Solutions Architect at Vertiv, examining how converged physical infrastructure is changing the speed and efficiency of AI-ready data center deployment.

As Gulf operators expand their AI capacity, Vertiv 360AI highlights an approach that combines power, cooling and IT infrastructure to support faster deployment and scalable computing environments. More information is available at Vertiv’s DCD>Connect event page.
