EPF 2026: The European Peering Forum in Paris

Published 2026

In the coming days, the European peering and interconnection community will gather at the Pullman Paris Montparnasse for the European Peering Forum (EPF 2026), a key event to discuss the latest trends in network infrastructure, routing optimization, and digital network policies.

With the telecom industry continuously evolving, events like EPF are invaluable for exchanging technical insights, discussing peering arrangements, and collaborating closely with operators and internet exchanges.

On Wednesday, September 16 at 11:40, Marco Paesani, Network Architect at Warian, will take the stage to present “Quality Over Cost in Network Infrastructure.” His talk will focus on one of the most critical challenges in modern peering and routing strategies: the risk of choosing infrastructure based primarily on price.

“Lower costs can be attractive in the short term, but network decisions must also consider performance, reliability, resilience, and long-term operational impact.”

If you are attending and would like to sync up, discuss peering strategies, or grab a coffee at the venue, we look forward to connecting. See you in Paris!
