On October 10, 2024, Stelia had the privilege of joining Nokia and industry leaders for a thought-provoking dinner at the Finnish Ambassador’s UK Residence. Our VP of Alliances, Peter Beecroft, engaged in discussions with experts from AMD, London Internet Exchange (LINX), Groq, Deep Green, and Civo, exchanging insights on the evolving landscape of AI, data centres, and energy policy.
AI, Geopolitics, and Energy Security: Key Takeaways
The conversation underscored the rising importance of energy security and its direct impact on AI deployment across Europe. As AI models grow more sophisticated, their compute demands place immense pressure on power grids and data center infrastructure. The geopolitical landscape further complicates this challenge, with policy decisions shaping energy availability and infrastructure investments.
With AI transitioning from experimentation to execution, leaders discussed the urgency of scalable, low-latency AI infrastructure that can support enterprise adoption without exceeding power constraints. Optimising AI inference efficiency emerged as a critical enabler for sustainable growth in the AI economy. 
Stelia’s Role in the Future of AI Infrastructure
As a key participant in the discussions, Stelia provided valuable insights into the intersection of AI infrastructure and energy policy. With AI’s future hinging on efficient inference execution, the conversation reinforced the need for optimized data mobility and compute orchestration to eliminate latency bottlenecks.
The AI economy will be defined not by experimentation, but execution—and that execution depends on infrastructure purpose-built for real-time AI workloads. Stelia is committed to powering AI-first enterprises with solutions designed to scale inference without compromising energy efficiency.
Looking Ahead
The event highlighted the necessity of collaboration between technology providers, policymakers, and infrastructure leaders to address AI’s growing demands. As enterprise AI adoption accelerates, solving inference bottlenecks and ensuring sustainable data center operations will remain at the forefront of industry discussions.
