Dear Kameliya,
Thank you for the additional information and clarification.
Please note that participation in the EPF is subject to our Attendee Policy. If you are referring to the Digital Realty partnership, this is considered a data center partnership and therefore does not qualify for attendance under the current policy.
Your AMS-IX partnership is noted, but unfortunately does not change the eligibility criteria in this case.
If you would still like to participate in the EPF, you are welcome to do so via sponsorship.
You can find the full Attendee Policy on the EPF website for further details.
Best regards,
Carolin
On behalf of the EPF Hosts

Betreff: Re: [epf-info] EPF 2026 - registration declined
Dear EPF Team,
Thank you for your response regarding our registration for the European Peering Forum in Paris.
I would kindly like to request a reconsideration of our application ( for my colleague Kiril Ralinski and I), as we believe some important information may not have been fully taken into account during the review process.
Our organization becomes part of the Digital Realty (DLR) this year and are also an official AMS-IX Partner. These details can be included in our application as they reflect our ongoing commitment to expanding our peering presence and strengthening our engagement with the European interconnection community.
The European Peering Forum is one of the most important events for networks seeking to establish new peering relationships, develop existing partnerships and engage with the wider peering community. Our objective in attending is fully aligned with the purpose of the event. We are pursuing opportunities for further interconnection and peering development and see EPF as a valuable platform for meetings with current and prospective peers, exchange operators and ecosystem partners.
Given our involvement with AMS-IX and our recent acquisition within the Digital Realty, I would greatly appreciate it if our application could be reviewed once again.
Should you require any additional information regarding our current deployments, peering activities, AMS-IX partnership status, I would be pleased to provide it.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to participate in EPF this year.
Kind regards,
Kameliya Davidova

Dear Kameliya,
Thank you for your interest in the European Peering Forum.
Unfortunately, your registration for the forum has been declined because you are not peering at any of the four EPF host IXPs and/or the guest IXP. If your company has concrete deployment plans at one of the host exchanges you are also welcome to attend EPF. Please verify.
If you disagree with our decision, please send an email to info@peering-forum.eu.
We apologise for the inconvenience.
Best regards,
EPF Hosts
