STULZ, a leading manufacturer of energy-efficient air conditioning solutions for data centres and mission-critical applications, has announced the opening of its new Center of Excellence (COE) in Dubai.
Located in the Silicon Oasis in Dubai Digital Park, the Center of Excellence will enable STULZ to expand its presence across Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region, building on its reputation as a pioneer in the provision of efficient and reliable climate control solutions for data centres, commercial and industrial applications.
The EMEA region is vital to the global data centre industry, driven by its strategic location, growing digital economy and substantial investments in infrastructure and technology.
STULZ has assembled a team of company experts to operate its Center of Excellence, headed by Karim Ait Younes, Head of Sales EMEA. He is joined by Olaf Kempcke as Senior Key Account Manager MEA; Joe Thomas as Key Account Technical Sales Manager Europe; and Marcus Jänsch as Operational Manager of the EMEA COE.
A solution architecture team in India, led by Sanjay Jadhav and assisted by Anand Babadi, will support the COE in providing consulting services for the complete STULZ product range, serving commercial and industrial clients in the Middle East and Africa.
“The creation of our COE in Dubai is an important next step in strengthening our sales organisation in the EMEA region and allows us to advise and support our customers even more intensively,” said Younes. “Being strategically located in close proximity to consultants and planners across the region enables us to be directly involved with their projects and, in turn, develop the best possible solution for them.”
Suresh Balakrishnan, Managing Director of STULZ India, said: “For large commercial and industrial brown field and green field projects, STULZ will be a key enabler for the introduction of technologically advanced solutions that not only reduce energy consumption and carbon footprints but also offer a rapid return on investment.”
The Center of Excellence will offer a comprehensive range of services including pre-sales support, expert advice on project planning, as well as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) design, performance and analysis.
“As a leading manufacturer, we can provide vital advice and support, from the initial concept to the implementation of complex air conditioning solutions for data centres and other commercial/industrial applications,” Jänsch said. “I’m looking forward to creating more successful and productive collaborations with consultants, planners and customers from across EMEA.”
To further celebrate the opening of its Center of Excellence, STULZ will attend this year’s GITEX Global in Dubai, which takes place between 14-18 October at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
