Innovation Stage, hosted by Verne Global
Pink Zone

As racks exceed 80–100 kW and hyperscale deployments accelerate, liquid cooling is moving from experimental technology to strategic infrastructure priority.

This session will explore how liquid cooling impacts facility design, power availability, sustainability goals, and long-term capacity planning, while also addressing the challenges of retrofitting existing sites, managing supply chains, and aligning standards across the industry.
