Boards and senior leaders around the globe are making long-term infrastructure decisions with power constraints firmly at the forefront. Extended grid connection timelines are putting pressure on delivery plans, while sustainability expectations continue to rise alongside accelerating AI-driven demand.
In this webinar, Telehouse host Nick Layzell is joined by experts from JLL and CBRE to examine the widening gap between infrastructure ambition versus delivery reality for 2026 and beyond.
Designed for CIOs and senior leaders responsible for long-term infrastructure strategy, the webinar provides practical insight into navigating today’s biggest data centre constraints to make smarter, feasibility-first decisions. You’ll understand how power availability is shaping site selection and timelines, what “AI-ready” really demands in terms of infrastructure and design, and how leading organizations are securing long-term capacity with greater certainty.
Key topics include:
- 2026 board imperatives: locking in power certainty, enabling flexibility, and embedding connectivity from the outset
- Prioritising deliverability in site selection: planning realities and viable routes to power
- Making “AI-ready” tangible: power strategy, cooling design, and workload density considerations
- Sustainability expectations: securing renewable supply and planning for long-term strategy
