Panel: The Human Bottleneck - Solving the human capital challenge behind AI infrastructure
The demand for new fiber, new data centers continues to outpace supply, but one aspect represents both the biggest bottleneck and the biggest opportunity. The "digital infrastructure boom" has the potential to become the "blue collar boom" as demand for talent in every field from construction to electrical engineering to welding represents another potential setback after the difficult journey to permitting has finished. Join us for this panel as we explore:
- How can operators, technology providers, and educational institutions work together to develop the workforce of the future?
- What strategies are proving most effective for attracting, retaining, and upskilling talent in an increasingly competitive market?
- How can data center and fiber operators work more closely with subcontractors to address labour shortfalls strategically?
