AI is no longer just a trend—it’s the new normal. And we’re going to have to get used to that. Every data center is becoming an AI data center. The only question is: how fast can you get there? As artificial intelligence transforms industries and drives unprecedented demand for compute, the rise of the AI Factory—high-density, GPU-powered infrastructure purpose-built for machine learning and generative AI—is reshaping the digital infrastructure landscape. Traditional facilities simply weren’t designed for the extreme power, cooling, and network bandwidth demands of AI workloads. This panel brings together leaders building and operating real AI factories to explore what it really takes to deploy at scale. From advanced liquid cooling and high-density power strategies, to GPU-optimized infrastructure, next-gen network fabrics, and strategic site selection, you'll get a first-hand look at how these operators are designing for performance, scalability, and real ROI. We'll also cover the evolving role of real estate in AI infrastructure decisions, the business models behind AI-as-a-Service, and how to translate infrastructure investment into revenue-generating AI services. If you’re in digital infrastructure, this session is your blueprint for surviving—and thriving—in the AI-first era.
