Freshfields x FTI @ Climate Week NYC: The Data Center Buildout – Sustainability, Power and Permission to Operate

As demand for AI and cloud computing drives a new wave of data center development, developers and investors are confronting increasingly complex sustainability and stakeholder challenges. With hyperscalers and infrastructure investors deploying capital at unprecedented scale, concerns over energy, water, and economic impact have become critical risks to project viability and timelines. Join us for a panel discussion where we will examine sustainability considerations in digital infrastructure and how developers and investors earn and keep permission to operate. 4:00pm | Arrival and registration 4:30pm | Panel discussion 5:45pm | Reception Speaker line-up coming soon.
