Based in Madrid, Reis will lead Digital Realty's strategy across the Iberian Peninsula, a fast-growing market at the heart of Southern Europe’s digital infrastructure expansion. He will drive Digital Realty’s continued investment in the region, including the development of its Madrid and Barcelona campuses, and the entry into the Lisbon market, reinforcing Iberia's position as a strategic hub for data exchange, connectivity and digital infrastructure across the broader Mediterranean region.

Reis brings more than 15 years of international experience across the technology, data and analytics sectors. He will report to Fabrice Coquio, SVP Europe Mediterranean, Managing Director France, and will work closely with Digital Realty’s regional leadership to accelerate the company’s commercial momentum, strengthen relationships with customers and partners, and support the growing demand for AI-ready, interconnected and sustainable digital infrastructure in the region.

"We are delighted to welcome Guilherme to lead our operations across Iberia. Spain and Portugal are among the most dynamic digital infrastructure markets in Southern Europe, and his leadership experience and deep market knowledge make him ideally suited to drive our ambitions in the region. With our new Barcelona campus and our entry into Lisbon, we are investing to position Iberia as a strategic gateway for connectivity, data exchange and AI-ready infrastructure across the Mediterranean. I am confident Guilherme will build on this momentum for our customers and partners," said Coquio.

"I am honoured to join Digital Realty at such a pivotal moment for the region. Having spent much of my career helping organisations harness the power of data and technology across markets in Europe and the Americas, I have seen first-hand how critical resilient, interconnected infrastructure has become. Iberia is now a key hub for digital infrastructure, driven by growing demand for interconnection, cloud and AI-ready capacity. I look forward to working with our teams, customers and partners across Spain and Portugal to accelerate this growth, deliver on our commitments and reinforce Digital Realty's role as a trusted partner in the region's digital transformation," said Reis.
