In this episode, Asanti's CEO, Stewart Laing, is joined by journalist Martin Veitch and IT industry veteran and journalist, Steve Broadhead, as they discuss the shifting landscape of data centre infrastructure following the explosion of data and the new demands of AI. The trio explore how location, power constraints, and fibre availability are reshaping where and how data centres are built - particularly the northward shift in the UK. They delve into skills shortages, the role of apprenticeships, government policy, and why edge infrastructure and localised data sovereignty matter more than ever, given the direction of US politics. This episode paints a pragmatic yet hopeful picture of a rapidly evolving industry.
