London, UK, 18 September 2024 – The Tech Capital, a prominent media and events authority in digital infrastructure finance and investment, and arch.conexus, a legal advice firm, will co-host a roundtable on “The Future of Data Centres” on October 3, 2024, in London.

The event will explore how to transform the challenges of evolving global sustainability regulations into competitive edge in the artificial intelligence (AI) age by addressing the intersection of green regulations, AI, and data centres finance, investment and development.

The roundtable comes as EU Directives, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive, reshape the business landscape.

These regulations mandate environmental and social reporting across supply chains, yet many global corporates and investors remain unprepared.

“This event will provide crucial insights into the regulatory landscape, compliance strategies, and methods to align business operations with ESG targets,” said Jack Haddon, deputy editor at The Tech Capital. “It will foster a collaborative dialogue, exploring how organisations can turn these regulatory challenges into opportunities.”

Key topics include:

• Implications of new EU Directives on corporate sustainability for the tech industry
• Practical approaches to ESG reporting and supply chain due diligence
• Strategies to transform regulatory challenges into competitive advantages
• Convergence of AI and sustainability in data centres

“In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, the drive towards sustainability has become not just a goal but a necessity,” said Nancy Lamb, head of data centres – construction solicitor, arch.conexus. In the face of climate change, governments and regulatory bodies worldwide are tightening the reins on emissions and energy consumption and with the exponential growth of AI and its widely reported energy demands that tightening will only increase.  But with challenges come opportunities and we will be discussing how the industry can leverage those opportunities.”

The exclusive event will operate under Chatham House Rules to encourage open discussion. Seating is limited and subject to prior approval.
