The data centre industry is experiencing unprecedented disruption. As AI applications drive explosive demand for computing power, traditional approaches to data centre design and deployment are becoming obsolete almost overnight.

In this episode, Emmanuel Becker, CEO of Mediterra Datacenters, shares insights from his extensive career spanning the evolution from on-premise to cloud to AI-driven infrastructure. With NVIDIA releasing new GPU generations every 6-12 months, data centre operators face an impossible equation: building facilities meant to last decades while needing flexibility every few months.

Emmanuel discusses Mediterra's innovative approach, including their focus on mid-voltage power infrastructure, liquid cooling readiness, and strategic positioning in tier two cities. The conversation explores how vertical AI specialists are driving regional demand, why ‘permanent retrofit’ is becoming standard practice, and how the industry must evolve to serve distributed intelligence rather than centralised hyperscale computing.

A must-listen for anyone involved in digital infrastructure, technology deployment, or understanding how AI is reshaping the built environment.
