AI is no longer just an application layer—it’s becoming the foundation of digital business. Yet most regional infrastructure wasn’t built for AI’s demands: extreme power density, liquid cooling, low-latency connectivity, and sovereign data requirements. In this keynote, Mayank Srivastava will share insights from building some of Asia’s first GPU-led AI campuses and outline why success requires rethinking the entire infrastructure stack—from power and sustainability to ecosystem partnerships. Key Takeaways:

 · Understand why AI-first infrastructure demands a fundamentally different design mindset

. · Explore the evolution from traditional data centers to “AI factories” powering regional economies.

 · Learn how sovereignty, sustainability, and scale shape Asia’s AI future.

 · Identify the real readiness gaps and actionable steps leaders must take today to enable the AI-driven digital economy of tomorrow.
