An event that promotes Turkey's digital industry and technological development. The event took place at the Baskent Organized Industrial Zone in Ankara on October 19, 2026. It was attended by national and international representatives, including Turkish government officials and global leaders in the data sector.

The project, called 'HIT-30', was realized in collaboration between Ronesans Holding and Digital Realty, two of the largest international companies in the data sector. The goal is to transform Ankara into a regional digital business center, promoting so-called economic and digital activities. According to Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacir, the opening of this new data center will be made up of investments of approximately $450 million for the construction of basic infrastructures and $900 million for IT systems.

Furthermore, he emphasized that this new installation will represent an investment of $4.1 billion in terms of fixed capital over four years, with a total of $450 million for the construction of a data center of at least 30 megawatts. This project is part of a broader strategy based on the initiatives proposed by Italy through the Program HIT-30. This program, which envisages investments of $30 billion until 2030, aims to attract high-tech investments and develop cloud computing and AI infrastructure, highlighting thus the need for a digital sovereignty policy.

The Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs recognized the importance of this event, considering that Turkey is moving towards a new technological and industrial chapter in its history. Turkey has benefited from support programs that have allowed the attraction of over 8,900 researchers and improved the country's computing structure, with over 80,000 processors, 504 GPUs, and 26 petabytes of storage capacity. Ankara's data center project is part of a national action plan for artificial intelligence, promoting so-called digitalization and digital production in Turkey.

The final goal is to create a quantum data system, claiming thus the position of a regional digital business center for Turkey's economic transformation.
