In this episode of SB Talks, CEO Vincent O'Neill and CIO Nick Ryder, take a fast-paced look at global markets. In the US, manufacturing slows as tariffs bite, while AI and data centre spending surge. Back home, Australia's first full monthly CPI eliminates hopes of a pre-Christmas rate cut, even as Q3 growth and capacity constraints keep pressure on. Nick unpacks a record capex jump, plant and equipment lead the charge, data centre hardware up 92% QoQ fueling productivity but driving imports. Markets cool after a risk-on run, crypto retreats, and competition heats up in banking. The duo also weigh the Fed chair race and a divided FOMC, before hinting at Stanford Brown's 2026 outlook: cautiously optimistic, focused on inflation, productivity, and the evolving AI story.

The past six months have marked a significant shift in the infrastructure landscape: 2025 was a record year for fundraising in infrastructure; the energy transition continued to create opportunities for investors, especially in the EU; transport and digital connectivity have raised billions in 2025, with UK airports undergoing large projects and American roads becoming a priority; and data centres continue to make waves across every market. In this episode of Talking Global Infrastructure, Vlad Benn, Policy and Research Manager at GIIA, is joined by Wayne Jephson (UK), Jay Moody (US) and Filippo Gaddo (EU), industry experts from Alvarez & Marsal. Together, they talk through the results of GIIA's Infrastructure Pulse Survey: a biannual breakdown of the sentiment of investors towards the environment for fundraising, the outlook and prospects for markets and industry sectors, the impact to barriers to investment and emerging investment trends.

What does it take to build Europe's largest and most sustainable data-centre campus, from an empty plot of land to a 1.2-gigawatt giant of AI? How do you future-proof a facility when chip technology is evolving at breakneck speed? And what happens when the site of former coal-fired power plant becomes a global hub for AI?In this special, on-location episode of Cleaning Up, Michael Liebreich visits Sines, Portugal, where Start Campus is transforming the site of a decommissioned coal plant into a next-generation data-centre campus that once finished will be Europe's largest data centre. CEO Robert Dunn takes us inside the first operational building, currently 29MW but just 2.5% of what's to come, to explore the engineering, economics, and vision behind a €10 billion physical infrastructure build that will eventually house an additional €40 billion in incoming IT hardware.From earthquake-proof structures to seawater cooling and uninterruptible power supply systems, Rob breaks down what it means to design for 99.99999% uptime in an AI-driven world. Michael and Rob also dive into the reality and hype surrounding AI: the surge in GPU-hungry AI training, the race to build at gigawatt scale, the challenges of financing these mega-projects, and the balancing act between speed, cost, sustainability, and long-term viability.Set against the backdrop of Microsoft's freshly announced $10 billion investment in the Sines campus, this episode illuminates how the data-centre industry is reshaping global energy systems, local communities, and the future of compute.Leadership Circle:Cleaning Up is supported by the Leadership Circle, and its founding members: Actis, Alcazar Energy, Davidson Kempner, EcoPragma Capital, EDP of Portugal, Eurelectric, the Gilardini Foundation, KKR, National Grid, Octopus Energy, Quadrature Climate Foundation, SDCL and Wärtsilä.

Andy and Rory unpack the difficulties of building a shared story, discuss the importance of transparency, and examine how new initiatives are paving the way forward for the next generation to join the sector.“Collaboration goes hand-in-hand with community,” Rory notes. “We need to do a better job at telling stories and opening up so we can change public perception on a broader scale”.The session also discusses the importance of National Data Centre Day - which spotlights the critical role of data centres in the UK's economic and AI ambitions.Its goal is to raise awareness, inspire future talent and show why this technology underpins modern life. With over 50 organisations already backing the initiative, this episode is a call to action for the entire industry to come together and amplify the #NDCD message.
