Symposium Context
Theme: “Meeting the Infrastructure Needs of Hyperscalers”
AI is transforming human capabilities. As aspirational as AI may be, the reality of building the infrastructure required to support it is equally formidable.
AI has become a topic of active discussion in the election cycle. The AI industry must own the narrative, establish appropriate safeguards, and responsibly execute the infrastructure buildout required to deliver value.
How should the entities involved in building AI data center infrastructure address the pressing needs of hyperscalers? Issues ranging from power reliability, water, noise, land use, and carbon management to community engagement have the potential to delay or even stop AI infrastructure projects.
The speed at which AI infrastructure is built is a critical success factor in achieving AI leadership. For the U.S. to lead the world in AI, it must accelerate the construction and commissioning of data centers to keep pace with explosive AI demand.
This symposium will bring together top leaders and experts across industries to identify and discuss the blind spots that others across the ecosystem may be missing. How can the entire value chain—from hyperscalers to infrastructure developers and equipment manufacturers―work more efficiently, overcome critical obstacles, and make faster progress?
