Where the Future Runs: Reinventing Infrastructure for the AI Era | Civo Navigate London

Oct 6, 2026

The data centre was built for a different era. Racks drawing more power than entire rooms once did, heat that air alone can't carry away, and inference that needs to run close to the work are forcing a rethink from the ground up.

In this fireside chat from Civo Navigate London, Civo CEO Mark Boost, Anthony Sarno and Josh Mesout explore how the demands of AI are reshaping the data centre and challenging traditional approaches to cloud infrastructure.

They discuss how Civo is rethinking the foundations of compute to build infrastructure that's faster, more efficient and more accessible, so the next generation of AI isn't limited to the few who can afford it.
