Integrating Internal & External Infrastructure to Ensure Seamless Project Execution
11:30 am
  • Understanding where coordination breaks down between external infrastructure (e.g. medium/high voltage, duct banks, substations) and internal building systems
  • Exploring how late changes to external designs (e.g. cable routing, capacity) impact completed or ongoing internal works
  • Identifying challenges in coordinating across multiple contractors who have separate scopes but shared dependencies
  • Assessing how communication gaps and unclear ownership at these interfaces increase delivery risk and safety concerns

Hyperscaler, Neocloud & Colocator Panel: Aligning Power, Supply Chain & Delivery Models to De-Risk the Next Wave of AI Capacity Growth
8:10 am
  • Identifying the real constraints to scaling capacity across power, land, and skilled labor availability: how is that impacting where we plan future builds?
  • Understanding the shift from LLM training to inference workloads: how does this inform infrastructure design, construction and capacity planning?
  • Aligning construction resources, trade partners and supply chains with long-term planning to improve delivery certainty and reduce disruption risk
  • Reassessing where to build over the next 3–5 years as power constraints force trade-offs between speed and proximity to demand
