#30 | Building the Backbone of the AI Economy - What It Takes to Deliver Hyperscale Compute with Éanna Murphy - CEO & Founder of Montera Infrastructure
As AI shifts from training to inference, founders, investors and VCs face a new frontier: the physical infrastructure that enables massive compute.
In this episode, Frazer and Éanna discuss:
-
The hidden development lifecycle of a hyperscale build - from dirt to green lights - and what that means for build‑to‑suit strategies.
-
Why power, latency and land have become the new scalers of value, and how to spot when infrastructure constraints turn into opportunity.
-
How investors and founders can position themselves early in this "third wave" of data‑centre build‑out to win sub‑1% of the market before it becomes crowded.
