    Come and join the ULI UK Young Leaders for a Panel Discussion on Data Centres at Tikehau Offices on July 3rd 2024 at 6:00pm!
     
    Join us for a captivating panel discussion on the future of Data Centres, where industry experts will delve into the pressing topics shaping the landscape:
     
    1. Is Demand only driven by Exponential Data Growth?: Demand for secure, reliable data storage is skyrocketing, driven by AI, IoT, and 5G. This makes data centers an attractive alternative asset class offering long-term, recession-resistant returns. Is the trend going to continue?
    2. Identify Evolving Platform Needs: With cloud, edge computing, and sustainability trends, successful platforms need flexibility, scalability, and innovative cooling solutions.
    3. Identify Strategic Location: Proximity to fiber optic networks, renewable energy sources, and population centers are crucial for platform efficiency and cost optimization.
    4. Sustainability Imperative: Green data centers utilizing renewable energy, water-efficient cooling, and circular economy principles will be key differentiators in attracting investors and tenants.
    5. Financing complexities: navigating the current financing environment is not easy? How to set up your platform correctly to attract the “right” source of capital
    6. Exit, is the market deep enough?: Liquidity is a key concern in the current market (for RE), do Data Centres suffer similar set backs? How do we ensure a successful exit.
