AI Compute Summit | Securing access and scaling infrastructure

May 22nd 2025 | Copenhagen, Denmark

The AI power struggle: navigating the critical challenges of scaling, optimising, and securing compute infrastructure to power the next era of artificial intelligence.

The rapid rise of AI is reshaping industries, but every intelligent system faces a critical challenge: the high demand for computing power. Training advanced AI models today requires large computational resources, with the amount needed doubling about every five months. As deep learning algorithms evolve, the competition for GPUs—now scarce and in high demand—continues to intensify, causing a bottleneck in AI.

 

But it’s not just about hardware. The energy required to power these models is significant, with some AI training sessions using as much energy as a city. As models grow in size and complexity, concerns about environmental impact and rising energy costs are unavoidable.

 

In this evolving landscape, access to advanced AI computing infrastructure will define future winners and losers. Those who can secure these resources will foster innovation and growth, while others may fall behind.

 

This event will examine the future of AI compute, addressing the challenges of building scalable, sustainable systems, the intense competition for limited resources, and the strategies needed to power AI responsibly and efficiently.

Join more than 300 industry leaders.
