ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Communities need to move beyond a simple pro-or-con debate and ask who benefits, who pays, what resources a project requires, and how the community will share in its value.

Data centers, love them or hate them? That's the wrong question. I'm not pro data center.
They've been around for years though, and we do need them. How do we ensure that we do not repeat the horror stories of the past? Data centers can bring investment, tax revenue, and jobs, but they can also require large amounts of land, electricity, water, and other natural resources.
What will each project require? Who will pay for it? What lasting value will it create?
And especially, how will the communities hosting them share in that value? Join me on Influential Voices in Technology™ as I ask who benefits, who pays, and what is really at stake?
