Keynote Panel: 12 months on what is the impact of AI on data centre business models?

4th of June, 10:55 – 11:40 AM CET,  Keynote Theatre, Palais des Festivals

Join Giordano Albertazzi, CEO of Vertiv, and other industry experts for this must-attend session focusing on generative AI data centers that are expected to surpass traditional data centers, constituing 75 percent of all data center demand by the end of the decade. By 2030, the industry will need 390GW for AI data centers and 130GW for traditional data centers.  

This panel will discuss:

• What is the timeline for a transition to inferencing?
• What is the correct solution for AI workloads?
• What innovations are we seeing around data centre design?
• How can we create flexibly to repurpose an AI data centre to a cloud data centre when the power requirements are different?
• Is there a place for tier 1 data centres within AI Training facilities?
• How big of a risk are stranded assets?
