Our panel, "Financing sustainable data centres," brings together operators and investors for an engaging discussion and debate around the relationship between economic value and sustainability in data centres. The discussion will explore three pivotal questions. Firstly, we will examine the key elements that constitute a value-driven approach within organisations, questioning what it actually means to prioritise value. Secondly, we will address how the global push towards decarbonization and evolving carbon economy is reshaping value, impacting financial and environmental strategies. Lastly, the panel will ignite a debate on putting a value on social factors, specifically focusing on how to make the business case for social impact. This panel aims to unravel the complexities of financing sustainable data centres in an environment of rapidly evolving market standards and environmental pressures.
