As demand for AI and cloud computing accelerates, data centre development is expanding at unprecedented pace.

Developers, investors and hyperscalers are deploying capital at scale while navigating increasingly complex sustainability, energy and stakeholder considerations. Access to power, water use, community engagement and economic impact are becoming critical factors in determining whether projects move forward on time and on budget.

Join Freshfields and FTI for a panel discussion exploring the sustainability challenges shaping digital infrastructure development and the strategies developers and investors can use to secure and maintain their permission to operate.

Following the discussion, please join us for a reception and the opportunity to continue the conversation with fellow industry leaders.

Full speaker lineup coming soon.
