Keynote Hyperscaler, Neocloud, & Colocator Panel: Defining End-User Requirements & Sharing Project Plans to Enable Scalable Data Centre Execution in a Sovereignty-First Regulatory Environment
8:30 am
- Exploring how priorities around speed, risk, power access, and workforce availability influence where and how data centres are built across Canada: what does our pipeline look like in 2027 and beyond?
- Defining what hyperscalers, neoclouds, and colocators expect from construction and delivery partners when selecting and delivering Canadian data centre projects
- Clarifying how contractors, utilities, and delivery partners are expected to operate under AI-driven speed, density, and risk requirements during construction execution in Canada

Case Study: Retrofitting Live Data Centres for AI Density While Upgrading Cooling, Power, & Operational Resilience
11:30 am
- Transitioning from air-to-water cooling architectures to support AI workloads above 20kW/rack while maintaining uptime during phased live-site migration
- Upgrading floor PDUs from 208V to 415V to reduce cable losses, improve OEM server compatibility, and increase rack power capacity in operational environments
- Coordinating secondary cooling redundancy, buffer tank integration, and operational readiness planning to reduce thermal, leak, and changeover risk before IT migration begins
