DCD>Talks: Scaling sustainably in the age of AI with Stefan Nilsson, Conapto
Stefan Nilsson, CCO at Conapto, joins DCD’s James Raddings to discuss sustainable digital infrastructure, Sweden’s evolving data center market, and meeting the demands of next generation AI workloads.
The rapid expansion of AI workloads is creating immediate and substantial demands on data center infrastructure, particularly regarding sustainable power and cooling solutions.
This event highlights the critical intersection of AI's growth, energy infrastructure, and national digital sovereignty, which are becoming central to economic and technological competitiveness.
The focus shifts towards infrastructure providers that can deliver scalable, energy-efficient data solutions, elevating sustainability from a desirable feature to a core requirement for AI adoption.
