#39 Innovation Accelerator | Optimise or Transform: two novel approaches to datacentres cooling efficiency
Originally streamed live on May 19, 2026. To participate in future sessions, live—and ask questions in real time—visit the Events – Infrastructure Masons page and register. *** Cooling accounts for up to 40% of a data centre's operational costs — so how do you optimise it? In this Meet the Startups session, moderator Romain Tranchant is joined by two innovative companies from the iMasons Innovation Incubator with very different — but equally compelling — answers. 🔹 George Hancock, Co-Founder & VP of Strategic Partners at OptaiPipe, presents ACE (AI for Cooling Efficiency) — an AI-driven cooling control system that combines deep reinforcement learning with a guardian AI agent to deliver safe, explainable, and actionable energy optimisation. Deployed entirely on-premise, it's built for the realities of mission-critical data centre operations. 🔹 Matt Stroud, P.E., CEO at Icebox Energy, showcases an innovative reutilisation of proven technologies, purpose-built for the demands of modern data centres — tackling the mounting complexity of liquid cooling at scale. The conversation goes beyond the technology, exploring how operators build trust in new systems, the gap between investor metrics and industry decision-making, and the lessons learned from a year inside the iMasons Incubator programme. A must-watch for anyone navigating the future of data centre innovation. 👉 Want to get involved?

#38 | Thought Leadership | Power, Scale & AI: Inside the Data Centre Shift
What does it take to build data centres fit for an AI-driven world? In this Innovation Exchange session hosted by iMasons Innovation, three industry experts explore the forces reshaping AI data center development. Pritesh Indore (Crusoe) breaks down why site selection is no longer a real estate decision — it's an energy procurement and geopolitical one. Eric Closson (Stream Data Centers) examines the sustainability challenges of extreme-density compute, from water use to power efficiency. JP Buzzell (Eaton) dives into the evolving design strategies needed to future-proof facilities built for AI workloads. Together they tackle the big questions: Where will the power come from? How do we bring communities along? And what does the next generation of infrastructure actually look like? 💬 Topics covered: site selection, power availability, liquid cooling, SMRs, behind-the-meter energy, community engagement, and the future of AI factories. 🔗 Learn more & join upcoming sessions: imasons.org/events Guests: 🎤 Speakers: Pritesh Indore, Crusoe — How AI is reshaping global site selection strategies Eric Closson, Stream Data Centres— AI-driven scale and design agility JP Buzzell, Eaton — Tackling waveform impacts from AI loads Moderator: Romain Tranchant, iMasons Innovation Committee Chair

#37 | Thought Leadership | Design for Success: Rethinking Risk, Speed & Sustainability
In this episode, host Romain Tranchant speaks with Geene Alhady, President of Clark Pacific, about how industrialized, product‑driven construction is reshaping data center and AI infrastructure delivery. Geene explains why Clark Pacific has moved away from traditional project‑by‑project construction toward a manufacturing mindset focused on standard products, repeatability, and market share. He dives into design for manufacturing, logistics, and assembly (DFMLA), the shift from risk avoidance to guaranteeing success, and how early collaboration with owners and designers unlocks speed, cost certainty, and scalability. The conversation also explores sustainability through Clark Pacific’s Carbon Shield low‑carbon concrete, the realities of scaling prefabrication at pace, and why shared values—not just contracts—are critical to transforming one of the world’s most risk‑averse industries. A must‑listen for anyone interested in the future of construction, prefabrication, and sustainable building innovation. *** Guest: Geene Alhady President at Clark Pacific Moderator: Romain Tranchant, iMasons Innovation Committee Chair *** Infrastructure Masons (iMasons) is a global, non-profit, professional association of individuals connected and empowered to build a greater digital future for all. #iMasons #InfrastructureMasons #Innovation #ThoughtLeadership
