Building the foundations of AI: Scalable, efficient, sustainable
Free Virtual Event | December 2nd 2025 9 AM EST / 2 PM UK

AI demand is growing at a pace never seen before. Data centers, chipsets, power grids and supply chains are being stretched to their limits as the race to scale accelerates. We are learning as we build—yet the cost, complexity and environmental impact highlight the need for smarter, more sustainable approaches.
Through expert presentations, cross-industry panels and analyst insights, the forum explores the full stack of AI infrastructure. We’ll examine strategies for upgrading legacy data centers, designing greenfield facilities, scaling edge deployments, and ensuring multi-site synchronization and operational efficiency. We’ll also tackle the political, regulatory, and societal pressures shaping how AI infrastructure is deployed worldwide.
At RCR’s AI Infrastructure Forum 2025, we bring together the full ecosystem to define the roadmap for building AI’s backbone and confront this defining challenge: expanding AI infrastructure sustainably, efficiently and at scale.
Key Themes
◦ Economic and Business Models for AI Infrastructure: Explore how AI infrastructure is creating new revenue streams, reshaping CAPEX/OPEX planning, and enabling services such as Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) and GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS).
◦ Scaling Compute, Networking and Storage: From legacy data centers to greenfield builds, learn strategies for upgrading and designing infrastructure that meets the exponential growth in AI workloads.
◦ Sustainable and Energy-Efficient AI: Address the energy dilemma of AI: power sources, cooling architectures, operational optimization and regional regulatory disparities, ensuring high performance without compromising sustainability.
◦ Networking, Interconnects, and Data Movement: Delve into high-speed fabrics, optical and chip-to-chip interconnects, multi-site synchronization and testing strategies to keep AI data flowing efficiently across clouds, edges and data centers.
◦ Operational Excellence and Orchestration: Understand how orchestration platforms, AI-driven analytics and workflow standardization transform raw infrastructure into a reliable, repeatable “AI Factory,” while enabling edge and regional deployments.
