Do we need digital transformation? Do we have smart customers? What are the needs of citizens? What do tourists want from a city? But the companies? Do we win time? Do we make money? Are the data for substantiating decisions important? Is there a roadmap for becoming smart city? Are we ready to invest? Have we allocated budgets for digital transformation? Do we know to make technical specifications? The volume of data increases every day. Where do we store them? How would we like to be kept? How do we process them? Can we ensure security? Are we ready to migrate in the cloud?

Romania positioned to be The Leading Regional Cloud Provider

Romania is in an excellent geographic

position to deliver cloud services to

large parts of Mid and Eastern Europe,

Turkey and the northern countries of the

middle east.

Romania excels in the provision of Fast

and Resilient fibre links Nationally and

Internationally

Much of western Europe is constrained

for Electrical Energy; Romania is

blessed with an abundance of Green

Power much needed by Google/

Amazon/Facebook/ Microsoft

Romania has a significant and highly

skilled IT community: e.g. The Cluj

Cluster, well able to add value to that

Power, and export high margin IT Cloud

services instead.

There are currently 772 buildings with seismic risk in Bucharest and only 79 such buildings have been consolidated in the last 27 years, according to official data from the Bucharest City Hall.

During the last 1,000 years, according to historical data, it is thought that 17 earthquakes with 7 and over magnitude have occurred, which suggests a mean for unleashing the energy of every 58 years. Statistically, the magnitude 6 and over earthquakes in the Vrancea area occur approximately every 10 years, magnitude 7 every 33 years, while those with 7.5 magnitude every 80 years

Even if it is the other Guy your enterprise will likely be compromised

The city is located in the Romanian Plain, between the Danube and the Carpathian Mountains, in the meadow area of two rivers.

Some 347 buildings are high-seismic risk, which means that they would likely fall if a strong quake shakes Romania, according to updated lists on the city hall’s website

Brasov is not immune

Elevator Speech A Instead of exporting Electrical power at Wholesale rates and little margin, export IT

Capability at Significant margin and 1BN Euro improvement to GDP

Much of western Europe is constrained for Electrical Energy; Romania is blessed with an abundance of Green Power much needed by Google/ Amazon/Facebook/ Microsoft

Romania has a significant and highly skilled IT community: e.g. The Cluj Cluster, well able to add value to that Power, and export high margin IT Cloud services instead.

Romania is in an excellent geographic position to deliver cloud services to large parts of Mid and Eastern Europe, Turkey and the northern countries of the middle east.

Romania is a strong democracy, offering low business risk and measurably less geopolitical risk than the neighbouring countries that would be our IT cloud market

Romania is a perfect position to create a “beachhead” for large Chinese and Japanese companies that seek to deliver their IT services to Europe. Alibaba, Huawei, NTT

In early 2000s the UK FSA identified that there was an intense concentration of Financial Services enterprises that had the key IT data centres within the Axis between the Bank of England and Canary Wharf, and that a Disastrous Terrorist inspired event akin to 9/11 or a “Dirty Bomb” on the Thames, would severely impair the UK financial system and the economy.

The FSA encouraged Fintech Enterprises to address their Business Continuity provisions and ensure that the DR facilities were sufficiently remote from their Prime site, AND of a quality that they would be capable of delivering all necessary services in the event of an outage. The business and IT processes surrounding DR and Business continuity were also to be made robust and the viability of these to be tested regularly. London Clearance House alternates on a monthly basis the Prime and Back-up locations; in effect they are both Prime.

A recent Data Centre event and consequent Business Continuity concerns are a timely prompt that Financial Services may not be as prepared as they need to be and concertation of risk in the event of an earthquake, could severely impair the Romanian financial system and economy.

The evidence is that the many of the Prime data centres fail to meet the current industry standards and that the nominated Disaster Recovery sites/ of back up data centres (BRDC) are of an even lesser standard than the current Prime sites.

The recent Data Centre event demonstrated a marked reluctance to invoke or switch to the Back-up site, indicating, the inadequacy of the Back-up data centre, inadequacy of the “fail-back” provisions, and lack of regular testing.

Addressing this systemic issue would require Romanian Government encouragement , excellent telecoms provision between the Data Centres, and DR consultancy from consultancies with a presence in Romania
