Ten years ago, nobody could tell you how many data centres were in London. Or Dublin. Or most major markets. The industry that runs the digital world had no reliable way of counting its own buildings.Ed Galvin founded DC Byte to fix that. He built the company from scratch into the leading global data centre market intelligence platform, secured private equity investment from Kester Capital in 2022, and stepped back from the CEO role in 2025 — handing the reins to Bernard Johnson while he moved into a Chief Evangelist position.He's now watching his baby grow from a distance while pursuing new ventures.In this conversation — recorded at PTC in Honolulu — Ed talks to James Murphy (DC Byte's Asia MD and Ed's former employee) about the early days of trying to map an industry that didn't want to be mapped, why DC Byte still physically verifies sites, and how the data is now shaping billions of dollars in investment decisions.Fair warning: Ed is a talker. We covered a lot of ground.Hosts: Rhys Morgan & James Murphy Guest: Ed Galvin, Founder, DC Byte New episodes weekly.
