2nd annual AI Compute Summit

Scarcity, sovereignty and the scramble for power

Building the next generation of artificial intelligence is becoming a contest for processing power. As demand for specialist chips, inexpensive energy and scarce data-centre capacity intensifies, AI compute has emerged as the new engine—and constraint—of innovation.

This summit explores the technology, energy and infrastructure challenges shaping how the AI computing ecosystem and major businesses who harness AI operate. Whether GPU access, grid improvements, sustainable data-centre design, energy capacity or AI regulation, the choices made by executives and policy officials will shape the success of companies and national economies.
