⚡ Power is becoming the make-or-break constraint for data centre buildouts, and it is stretching timelines in ways developers cannot ignore. Converting established industrial sites can shorten time-to-power by reusing existing grid connections and infrastructure. 🏭 Factories and power plants often sit near transmission corridors and high-capacity substations, and some sites also have onsite generation or room to add it. In certain geographies, links to district heating systems can help absorb warmth from a data centre, and some sites have zoning status and environmental review history that can ease permitting.

Operational resilience has moved beyond compliance to become a strategic capability that protects trust, performance and continuity when it matters most. Yet many resilience programmes are still fragmented, manual and disconnected from how organisations actually operate. Leading organisations are shifting from reactive recovery to continuous, connected resilience powered by clear governance, better data and technology that enables real insight. 👉 Scroll to explore today's challenges and what modern operational resilience really looks like.

Our AI Performance Study asked more than 1,000 of the world’s biggest businesses if AI is really delivering value. The answer is yes, but only for a few. Our Chief Technology and Innovation Officer Matt Wood shares some of the study’s key insights on AI’s value and how it’s being captured. The findings reveal a growing gap—while many organisations are investing in AI, only a small group is generating 7.2x greater AI‑driven financial returns than their peers. The message is clear: AI advantage does not come from more pilots but from turning goals into measurable outcomes. Watch the video to hear Matt’s perspective, then dive into the full study to see what the top performers are doing differently and what it takes to turn AI ambition into advantage: https://pwc.to/4cisn7Q #ROIofAI

Leaders who act now to equip their people and rethink roles are far more likely to pull ahead, while those who hesitate risk being overtaken by competitors moving faster with AI.
