Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from thought leaders and engage with the pressing issues shaping Australia’s data infrastructure landscape.
We invite our Future Leaders to join industry experts for an in-depth panel discussion on "Data Centres and Supporting Infrastructure Needed to Meet Growing Demand in Australia." This session will explore the surging demand for data centres driven by emerging technologies, including AI, and how Australia can scale its infrastructure to keep pace. The panel will examine critical financing models and investment strategies, including the role of private credit, to fund large-scale data centre projects. Environmental sustainability, grid reliability, and geopolitical factors will be addressed, alongside future technological advancements.
A great event for all levels of experience in the industry to network and learn!
