The Board of Directors of Enterprise Greece decided on 1st April 2022 to propose to the Interministerial Committee (DESE) the inclusion of the Investment Plan "Investment in Data Centers in Greece" by Microsoft Operations 473 Single Member S.A.

The project will create a complex of data centres and technological business support, consisting of three (3) data centres, in different locations, Spata and Koropi, in the Attica Region. The project will develop and provide cloud computing services in Greece (Microsoft Cloud, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Azure, Dynamics 365 and Power Platform). Data centres are used to store, process, and share large amounts of data to users, while cloud computing refers to the provision of computing resources via the internet (e.g., servers, apps, etc.), from central systems that are located far from the final user and could reach them by automated processes, providing a variety of services and connection flexibility.

Such good news for Greece’s economy to improve and expand the ICT industry of the country. Microsoft’ investment will generate an upgrade in added-value for communication technologies sector and more opportunities for future investments in the country.
