Detailed Description

Symposium Context

Data center projects are one of the most prolific growth areas in 2025. As the deployment of AI and related technologies become an integral part of the economy, energy demand is rising fast.

Data centers are projected to grow dramatically both in quantity and size. Energy is the critical component. Lack of energy and associated infrastructure can stop these projects in their tracks.

What are the challenges and what are the opportunities as the data center energy & infrastructure ecosystem is being built?

Why Attend?

Our Unique Format

What Makes Us Different?

Houston Strategy Forum events are innovative. No speeches. No PowerPoint presentations. They are open and down-to-earth discussions with our speakers. Our format is a relaxed, intimate, fireside-style chat. And, always unscripted!

Over the years, we have had top CEOs and executives share their deepest thoughts and feelings that you would never hear in a regular conference. We respect and value that interaction greatly — it is what makes us the preeminent discussion forum.

Our business talk show format facilitates an energetic, meaningful, and respectful exchange of ideas between our speakers and attendees. Our goal is to get a majority of the attendees to contribute to the discussion. When that happens — it creates magic!

We receive rave reviews about our format both from our speakers and attendees.

To encourage an open and candid discussion we follow Chatham House rules.
