Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), the global interconnection and
data centre company, today announces the appointment of Robert Busz
as Managing Director for Poland. Equinix arrived in Poland in
January 2016 as the result of the company’s acquisition of
TelecityGroup, which included two data centres in Warsaw and the
PLIX, the leading Internet Exchange in Poland. Recognizing the
growth and potential of the Polish market, Equinix recently
completed expansion of its second facility in Warsaw. Work is also
underway to expand the PLIX to meet the requirements of key
participants.
With almost 20 years of experience in management and business
development within telecommunications and data management
organisations, Robert will use his knowledge to drive Equinix’s
commercial growth in Poland. In his new role, Robert will be
responsible for implementing Poland’s local strategy and direction,
building on the strength of Equinix’s commercial and operational
success at EMEA and global levels.
Robert has played an integral role in Poland’s
telecommunications and network operations industries since 1999 and
has years of experience in developing local strategies that enhance
global corporate objectives. Most recently, he was Sales Director
for CEE, Russia and CIS at the American telecommunications and
internet service provider, Level 3 Communications. Prior to that,
Robert was Sales Development Director CEE at Swedish telecoms
multinational, TeliaSonera International, now Telia Company.
Eric Schwartz, President of Equinix EMEA said: “Poland has a
strong, vibrant economy and is an attractive location for foreign
direct investment. We see great potential for Equinix in Poland and
Robert is the best person to lead our Polish operation to new
heights. His experience in the global telecommunications industry
also positions him well to engage with customers in Poland to
support their global operations around the world. We are excited to
have Robert join our team.”
