Australia is rapidly emerging as a hub for data centres, driven by AI, cloud computing and massive global investment.

Sean Aylmer speaks with Belinda Dennett, CEO of Data Centres Australia, about why Australia is attracting global attention - including a $25 billion investment by Microsoft. She also breaks down the biggest challenges, including energy, transmission and water, and why data centres may actually be helping accelerate the renewable transition rather than hindering it.

Belinda Dennett appeared at the Microsoft AI Tour, which featured some of the biggest names in technology and business. For the highlights and announcements from the event, click here.
