Data Center Talent in Thailand: Building the Next Digital Workforce
Thailand's data center sector is growing fast but the workforce needed to run it is not keeping pace.
With 42 data centers currently operating and that number forecast to nearly double within five years, the industry is looking at a potential shortfall of 4,000 to 6,000 trained professionals. There is no data center degree. There is no obvious pipeline. And the people who could fill those roles largely do not know the industry exists.
In this panel, James Rix of JLL moderates a discussion with:
James Soh, Senior Technical Advisor, Novo Data Center Consultancy
John Holme, Managing Partner, Boyden Thailand & SE Asia
Together, they examine where the talent will come from, why Thailand's high-tech manufacturing base may be the most overlooked pipeline in the industry, and what operators, universities, and governments need to do before the silver tsunami hits.

Designing Amid Uncertainty: Al, Power Scarcity & Future- Proof Buildouts
As AI workloads push data center design into uncharted territory, operators are being forced to make infrastructure decisions without knowing who their tenants will be, what cooling technology will be standard, or how fast the next generation of hardware will arrive.
In this panel, Apiwit Puangsricharern of IM Impower moderates a discussion with:
Lukas Thalhammer, Regional Head of Data Center, Hilti Asia Pacific
Chow Hoong Kee, Application Manager, Enlighted Solutions
Together, they examine how to build infrastructure that stays relevant as technology evolves faster than construction timelines, why modularization is becoming a core design principle, and what sustainability demands look like beyond carbon targets.
