Asia-Pacific is entering a critical phase of AI infrastructure growth, with demand accelerating across hyperscale, colocation and enterprise markets. However, the ability to bring new capacity online at the speed and scale required is increasingly shaped by power availability, grid readiness, policy, investment, supply-chain constraints and the need to deliver more sustainable infrastructure. 
 
This panel will bring together senior perspectives spanning data center operations and technical reliability, alongside Hitachi’s energy, digital and data center expertise, to explore how the region can overcome these interconnected challenges. The discussion will consider what is needed to accelerate AI-ready capacity across Asia-Pacific while balancing speed to market, long-term scalability, resilience and sustainability.
