In this week's episode of the Industrial Real Estate Show, I sit down with Colin Clish, President of PointOne Data Centers to explore the complexities and hidden details of developing data centers.

We discuss everything from site selection and power management to cooling systems, connectivity requirements, and critical design considerations. Whether you're new to data centers or a seasoned professional, this conversation offers valuable insights into what it really takes to build and operate these crucial facilities.
