What happens when a government abruptly cuts off the lifeline of pure science? Imagine canceling Albert Einstein just before he published [E = mc². Terence Tao, the “Mozart of Mathematics,” was one of the unlucky researchers hit when the Trump administration suddenly terminated his federal research funding. Today, I walk and talk with Tao at UCLA to understand how America's greatest living mathematician found himself blindsided by a bureaucratic earthquake — and what it means for the future of discovery. This is Part 1 of our deep dive into Tao's work, his warnings about the collapse of U.S. research infrastructure, and why mathematics is the unseen root system supporting all of modern technology.

The Coming Wave: Why Cash PT Is Headed Toward National Consolidation In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down a bold prediction for the next decade of cash-based physical therapy: the rise of the first nationwide cash PT brand. He explains why the market is primed for massive consolidation, how well-funded companies will change the competitive landscape, and what independent PTs must do now to protect their clinics and stay ahead. Quick Ask If this episode helps you think strategically about your business, share it with another clinician who needs to hear it—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it. Let's help more PTs build resilient, future-proof practices. Episode Summary Documentation burnout: Notes are the #1 satisfaction killer for PTs—but AI scribes like Clair are changing that. The big prediction: A dominant, well-funded cash PT brand will emerge within 5–10 years. Why it's coming: Cash PT is a fragmented industry—making it ripe for consolidation. Parallel to CrossFit: Independent affiliates → OrangeTheory-style scaling. The MYO example: A clinically strong, business-savvy brand already expanding across North America. Funding accelerates growth: Capitalized clinics can outspend and outscale local competitors. The risk to small clinics: Owners who don't level up in business skills will be the first to get squeezed out. Lessons & Takeaways Strong brand identity matters: Your niche and reputation must be crystal clear. Community ties protect you: Local loyalty beats national branding when done right. Systems = survival: Without consistent processes, you can't compete with scaled clinics. Capital changes the game: Funded competitors can move faster and spend more to dominate markets. Seven-figure clinics are the safe zone: Multiple clinicians = stability, hiring power, and insulation. Mindset & Motivation Control what you can control: You can't stop national brands, but you can out-serve them locally. Play offense, not defense: Staying tiny isn't safe—it's risky. Growth is protection: More clinicians = stronger brand, stronger community presence, and stronger cash flow. Embrace the opportunity: Rising interest in cash PT means a larger market for everyone. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Automate documentation: Use Clair to reclaim time, reduce burnout, and stay patient-focused. Dial in your niche: Own a specific population so deeply that national chains can't replicate you. Invest in brand building: Your logo, message, and community presence matter more than ever. Master sales & marketing: Cash PT requires top-tier communication and value clarity. Train your team relentlessly: Quality control keeps your outcomes consistent across clinicians. Notable Quotes "Any fragmented industry eventually consolidates. Cash PT is no different." "If you stay tiny because you think it's safe, you're actually more vulnerable than ever." "A national cash PT brand will sell for nine figures—or more. The momentum is already here." "Your community, your niche, your service—those are your moats." Action Items Audit your brand: is it recognizable, niche-specific, and memorable? Evaluate your systems: documentation, scheduling, marketing, and sales. Assess your growth plan: is staying small really safe for the next decade? Study fast-scaling companies like MYO to understand future competition. Start using an AI scribe like Clair to free up hours of mental bandwidth.

Say It Out Loud With Words Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. The key to a successful pitch is to articulate all the values in the deal. This doesn't mean explaining how the product works in great detail This also doesn't mean spending half your allotted pitch time trying to convince the audience that diabetes is a problem. It does mean, however, that every value that has come into the startup is noted in the pitch deck with at least a logo or a bullet point. The rule of pitching is that if you don't mention it, then it doesn't exist. Here's a list to consider adding to the pitch deck: All funding sources to date, including angels, angel groups, grants, VC funds, and more. All partners, team members, and others who have contributed to building the startup. Any exits and positive outcomes for startups led by the team. All customers who have bought the product or given feedback. Include a logo for each one somewhere in the pitch deck. Investors look for evidence that investors, customers, and partners are supporting you. For each value, say it out loud with words.

Send us a textIntroduction: In a time when protests have become a frequent part of our social landscape, understanding their origins and funding has never been more crucial. In this episode of Clarity from Chaos, host Dave Campbell welcomes Adam Swart, founder of Crowds On Demand, to explore the mechanics of protests and the influence of financial backing on public demonstrations.The Rise of Marxism and Its Impact on Society: Dave Campbell opens the discussion by highlighting the perceived rise of Marxism in America, particularly since the fall of the Soviet Union. He expresses concern over the implementation of social justice ideologies, such as Critical Race Theory (CRT), and the impact of cancel culture. Campbell argues that these movements are rewriting history and fostering division within society, which he believes contradicts the nation's foundational Judeo-Christian values.Adam Swart's Expertise in Organized Protests: Adam Swart shares his background as the founder of Crowds On Demand, a company specializing in organizing protests for various causes. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the funding and structure behind large-scale demonstrations. Swart introduces the Transparency in Political Demonstrations Act, a bipartisan initiative aimed at bringing clarity to the financial sources behind protests. This act seeks to ensure that while protests are a fundamental American right, their integrity remains intact by preventing foreign interference and violence.The Challenge of Funding and Violence: The conversation shifts to the complexities of funding protests, especially when foreign actors are involved. Swart explains that while peaceful protests are protected, foreign interference and violent actions are not. He stresses the need for law enforcement to delve deeper into the funding sources of protests, suggesting that understanding the financial layers can help identify and mitigate violence.The Role of NGOs and Political Agendas: Campbell raises concerns about the influence of NGOs and their funding mechanisms. Swart counters that while it may seem straightforward to halt NGO activities, doing so could lead to political targeting similar to what conservative groups experienced under the Biden administration. He advocates for a nonpartisan approach to ensure fairness and transparency in political demonstrations.The Importance of Accountability: Throughout their discussion, both Campbell and Swart emphasize the need for accountability in protest funding. Swart shares his experiences with the challenges of tracing financial backers, highlighting the need for a thorough investigation into who funds protest activities. He suggests that peeling back the layers of funding can deter potential financial backers from supporting violent protests.Conclusion: This insightful conversation sheds light on the intricate world of organized protests and the critical role funding plays in shaping public demonstrations. As we navigate the complexities of free speech and political expression, it is essential to ensure that our rights are protected while holding accountable those who seek to exploit these Support the show"Wherever you find yourself is exactly and precisely where God wills you to be" Support our show at the following: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2063276/support Follow us on X: @CFC30290 Follow us on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-3123766 Website: https://clarityfromchaospodcast.buzzsprout.com/ Website: https://clarityfromchaos.substack.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFk-DsClSJ6m0GDmAcA7AAg Thanks for listening to Clarity from Chaos

Starlink: Funding the Mars Vision through LEO Constellations. Eric Berger discusses Starlink, a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites designed to fund Musk's Mars vision. While the idea wasn't new, deploying thousands of satellites for global internet was previously viewed as impractical due to manufacturing and launch rate limitations. Starlink, now highly successful with about 7,000 operational satellites, minimizes lag compared to geostationary systems like Iridium. This revenue stream is critical to supporting the company's goals, although the work environment demands extreme dedication from employees who often sacrifice personal lives. Guest: Eric Berger.

Dragon Spacecraft Development and Reusability Focus. Eric Berger explains that SpaceX needed NASA contracts to fund its Mars ambition. NASA provided critical funding in 2006 and 2009 for the Dragon spacecraft to deliver cargo to the International Space Station, replacing retiring vehicles like the Space Shuttle. Dragon was designed for recoverability and reuse, incorporating propulsion into the capsule itself, which increased complexity. Under pressure from Musk's impatience, SpaceX combined two critical test missions, C2 and C3, in 2012, ultimately succeeding due to a brave decision by a NASA flight director to allow on-the-spot software changes. Guest: Eric Berger.

Crew Dragon and Commercial Human Spaceflight. Eric Berger discusses NASA's Commercial Crew Program, initiated after the Space Shuttle retired. Boeing's entry legitimized the program, securing crucial congressional funding for competitors like SpaceX. SpaceX adapted the Dragon design for crew, involving extensive parachute testing by the "Shoot Show" team in the desert and ultimately agreeing to water landings for astronaut safety. Crew Dragon launched atop the Falcon 9 Block 5, the modern rocket iteration optimized for rapid reuse, emphasizing that reusability remained the central focus, even for human spaceflight. Guest: Eric Berger.

Ilya Marritz, journalist working with The Boston Globe, talks about his new series, The Harvard Plan, in conjunction with The Boston Globe and On the Media, that looks at how the Trump administration has interfered with Harvard, and how it will affect academia and scientific research going forward.

In Oceanside in San Diego County, there's a small nonprofit that's become a steady place of support for Marines and veterans working through the hardest parts of coming home. The group trains dogs to work alongside service members, helping them rebuild routines, confidence, and a sense of stability. But now the program is facing a financial hit. A major source of federal funding is set to run out at the end of the year and it's unclear how many people the nonprofit will be able to keep serving without it. Reporter: Heidi de Marco, KPBS A federal judge in San Francisco says the Trump administration cannot immediately cut the University of California's funding or threaten fines over claims of discrimination. In Los Angeles, a federal judge granted a preliminary injunction in the ongoing case involving immigration raids across the region. The ruling says the federal government likely violated the Fifth Amendment by denying immigrants access to attorneys at a detention facility in downtown Los Angeles. Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the lowest point of your life became the foundation of a multimillion-dollar career? In today's episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we sit down with Alex Ruiz (@iamrobertalexruiz) — a young entrepreneur who went from being homeless and lost at 21… to funding over $12 million in credit and business capital by the age of 25. Alex opens up about the adversity he faced growing up with a single mother and nine siblings, how he battled internal doubt, and the exact moment he decided to stop living small and start leveling up.

In this episode, we open up about the creative strategies we've discovered as female real estate investors to secure capital when traditional funding feels out of reach. We share our experiences with tapping into equity, refinancing, and leveraging our networks, along with creative financing options like seller financing and partnerships. Throughout our journey, we've learned the importance of community, due diligence, and strategic planning.We've found that accessing our own equity through refinancing or HELOCs and building strong networks has been key to uncovering creative financing options. Understanding return on equity (ROE) has helped us evaluate property performance, and partnerships have provided us with capital, though they require careful due diligence.Raising private money and exploring creative financing methods like seller financing have been game-changers for us, bridging funding gaps when needed. We've realized that community support is invaluable for sharing resources and advice, and regularly reviewing our portfolio's equity is crucial for strategic planning. These approaches have empowered us to make informed decisions and grow our investments with confidence.  Resources:Grab your seat for our webinar on November 17thCheck out Episode 197Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

Flexibility in funding options can lead to better financial outcomes. FAFSA is a crucial step in the college funding process. Emotional aspects of financial planning can affect decision-making. There are multiple ways to fund education, and no one-size-fits-all solution exists. Networking and experiences gained in college can be as valuable as education itself. It's essential to seek advice from trusted and knowledgeable sources. Avoid cookie-cutter financial plans; tailor them to individual goals. Understanding the implications of financial decisions is key to effective planning. Engaging with others about their funding strategies can provide new insights.

Long time lurker, first time poster - be nice please! :) I was searching for summary data of EA funding trends, but couldn't find anything more recent than Tyler's post from 2022. So I decided to update it. If this analysis is done properly anywhere, please let me know. The spreadsheet is here (some things might look weird due to importing from Excel to sheets) Observations EA grantmaking appears on a steady downward trend since 2022 / FTX. The squeeze on GH funding to support AI / other longtermist priorities appears to be really taking effect this year (though 2025 is a rough estimate and has significant uncertainty.) I am really interested in particular about the apparent drop in GW grants this year. I suspect that it is wrong or at least misleading - the metrics report suggests they are raising ~$300m p.a. from non OP donors. Not sure if I have made an error (missing direct to charity donations?) or if they are just sitting on funding with the ongoing USAID disruption. Methodology I compiled the latest grants databases from EA Funds, GiveWell, OpenPhilanthropy, and SFF. I added summary level data from ACE.

Add Consulting to Your Startup Launch Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In launching a startup, consider adding a consulting program. New products and services often require additional training and services to help the customer achieve success. Over time, the product improves to the point that the customer can install and run it on their own. In the early days, use consulting to help customers become successful. The startup raising venture capital will need to be scalable to receive funding. Consulting is not scalable. Investors will downgrade the company for funding if a substantial amount of revenue comes from consulting services. Use a second company to provide the consulting. It can form a partnership with the main startup to provide consulting services. If consulting proves valuable to the startup, then it can be bought by the startup and rolled into the main company later. Many startups find that their product is not ready for prime time at the launch. By providing consulting services, one can overcome the initial product weaknesses and potentially make additional revenue to pay the bills. Consider adding consulting to your startup launch. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _________________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

Funding is being sought by any means necessary to order to combat a "treacherous walk to school" in Ennis. It follows concerns raised by the Principal of Holy Family National School for children walking from the Ballaghboy Halting Site on the Quin Road. There's no cycle lane, hard shoulder or footpath for a 550m stretch between the halting site and Johnno's Bar, and the cost of installing the latter is estimated to be €350,000 , but Clare County Council says funding isn't currently available.

Een onderneming opstarten, is een ervaring waar je gigantisch veel uit leert, ook als je niet helemaal tot de finish gaat. Neem nu het statuut van student-ondernemer, dat biedt ontzettend veel mogelijkheden om te experimenteren en te leren op jonge leeftijd. Van jongs af kunnen ouders een ondernemende geest stimuleren bij hun kinderen. Badpak vergeten? Zelf oplossen. Van dat uurtje aan de rand van het zwembad te zitten, leren die kinderen meer dan van ouders die nog snel de zwemzak gaan droppen op school. Bij ondernemers vertrekt alles van de facturen. Zo snel mogelijk het factuur uitsturen, achter de betaling van die facturen aan zitten, de juiste prijs berekenen voor een bepaald product of dienstverlening,… Als dat niet goed zit, dan zullen ondernemers belasting betalen op winsten waarvan ze de cash nooit op hun rekening hebben zien verschijnen. Verkopen, verkopen, verkopen is het adagio van veel ondernemerscoaches. De omzet opkrikken van 100.000 euro naar 1 miljoen euro lijkt wel de ultieme doelstelling, terwijl het eigenlijk om de marge draait. Ondernemers hebben beter wat minder omzet, waar ze meer nettowinst van overhouden. De omzet opkrikken kan ook door veel kosten te maken, maar dan hou je aan het einde van de rit weinig of zelfs helemaal geen winst over. De winst is de opbrengsten min de kosten. Je kunt ook je winst verhogen door te snoeien in de kosten. In Trends podcasts vind je alle podcasts van Trends en Trends Z, netjes geordend volgens publicatie.

Councillors in the Shannon Municipal District have received no increase in funding for discretionary projects in 2026. It comes as the Shannon MD's General Municipal Allocation has been confirmed as €343,000 for the coming year, meaning each elected representative will have €49,000 to distribute to local causes of their choice. Concerns have been raised, however, that larger residential areas in the region such as Westbury and Shannon Banks are not receiving adequate funding under the tidy towns scheme as they're not classed as villages. Shannon Banks Sinn Féin Councillor James Ryan says this can eat into GMA allowances unnecessarily.

Episode 4922: Showdown In The House Over Funding Bill; Fight Continues In Texas

Trump Working On 20 Year Funding Deal With Israel by Ron Paul Liberty Report

Live from Morgan Stanley's European Tech, Media and Telecom Conference in Barcelona, our roundtable of analysts discusses tech disruptions and datacenter growth, and how Europe factors in.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Paul Walsh: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European Head of Research Product. Today we return to my conversation with Adam Wood. Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology. We were live on stage at Morgan Stanley's 25th TMT Europe conference. We had so much to discuss around the themes of AI enablers, semiconductors, and telcos. So, we are back with a concluding episode on tech disruption and data center investments. It's Thursday the 13th of November at 8am in Barcelona. After speaking with the panel about the U.S. being overweight AI enablers, and the pockets of opportunity in Europe, I wanted to ask them about AI disruption, which has been a key theme here in Europe. I started by asking Adam how he was thinking about this theme. Adam Wood: It's fascinating to see this year how we've gone in most of those sectors to how positive can GenAI be for these companies? How well are they going to monetize the opportunities? How much are they going to take advantage internally to take their own margins up? To flipping in the second half of the year, mainly to, how disruptive are they going to be? And how on earth are they going to fend off these challenges? Paul Walsh: And I think that speaks to the extent to which, as a theme, this has really, you know, built momentum. Adam Wood: Absolutely. And I mean, look, I think the first point, you know, that you made is absolutely correct – that it's very difficult to disprove this. It's going to take time for that to happen. It's impossible to do in the short term. I think the other issue is that what we've seen is – if we look at the revenues of some of the companies, you know, and huge investments going in there. And investors can clearly see the benefit of GenAI. And so investors are right to ask the question, well, where's the revenue for these businesses? You know, where are we seeing it in info services or in IT services, or in enterprise software. And the reality is today, you know, we're not seeing it. And it's hard for analysts to point to evidence that – well, no, here's the revenue base, here's the benefit that's coming through. And so, investors naturally flip to, well, if there's no benefit, then surely, we should focus on the risk. So, I think we totally understand, you know, why people are focused on the negative side of things today. I think there are differences between the sub-sectors. I mean, I think if we look, you know, at IT services, first of all, from an investor point of view, I think that's been pretty well placed in the losers' buckets and people are most concerned about that sub-sector… Paul Walsh: Something you and the global team have written a lot about. Adam Wood: Yeah, we've written about, you know, the risk of disruption in that space, the need for those companies to invest, and then the challenges they face. But I mean, if we just keep it very, very simplistic. If Gen AI is a technology that, you know, displaces labor to any extent – companies that have played labor arbitrage and provide labor for the last 20 - 25 years, you know, they're going to have to make changes to their business model. So, I think that's understandable. And they're going to have to demonstrate how they can change and invest and produce a business model that addresses those concerns. I'd probably put info services in the middle. But the challenge in that space is you have real identifiable companies that have emerged, that have a revenue base and that are challenging a subset of the products of those businesses. So again, it's perfectly understandable that investors would worry. In that context, it's not a potential threat on the horizon. It's a real threat that exists today against certainly their businesses. I think software is probably the most interesting. I'd put it in the kind of final bucket where I actually believe… Well, I think first of all, we certainly wouldn't take the view that there's no risk of disruption and things aren't going to change. Clearly that is going to be the case. I think what we'd want to do though is we'd want to continue to use frameworks that we've used historically to think about how software companies differentiate themselves, what the barriers to entry are. We don't think we need to throw all of those things away just because we have GenAI, this new set of capabilities. And I think investors will come back most easily to that space. Paul Walsh: Emett, you talked a little bit there before about the fact that you haven't seen a huge amount of progress or additional insight from the telco space around AI; how AI is diffusing across the space. Do you get any discussions around disruption as it relates to telco space? Emmet Kelly: Very, very little. I think the biggest threat that telcos do see is – it is from the hyperscalers. So, if I look at and separate the B2C market out from the B2B, the telcos are still extremely dominant in the B2C space, clearly. But on the B2B space, the hyperscalers have come in on the cloud side, and if you look at their market share, they're very, very dominant in cloud – certainly from a wholesale perspective. So, if you look at the cloud market shares of the big three hyperscalers in Europe, this number is courtesy of my colleague George Webb. He said it's roughly 85 percent; that's how much they have of the cloud space today. The telcos, what they're doing is they're actually reselling the hyperscale service under the telco brand name. But we don't see much really in terms of the pure kind of AI disruption, but there are concerns definitely within the telco space that the hyperscalers might try and move from the B2B space into the B2C space at some stage. And whether it's through virtual networks, cloudified networks, to try and get into the B2C space that way. Paul Walsh: Understood. And Lee maybe less about disruption, but certainly adoption, some insights from your side around adoption across the tech hardware space? Lee Simpson: Sure. I think, you know, it's always seen that are enabling the AI move, but, but there is adoption inside semis companies as well, and I think I'd point to design flow. So, if you look at the design guys, they're embracing the agentic system thing really quickly and they're putting forward this capability of an agent engineer, so like a digital engineer. And it – I guess we've got to get this right. It is going to enable a faster time to market for the design flow on a chip. So, if you have that design flow time, that time to market. So, you're creating double the value there for the client. Do you share that 50-50 with them? So, the challenge is going to be exactly as Adam was saying, how do you monetize this stuff? So, this is kind of the struggle that we're seeing in adoption. Paul Walsh: And Emmett, let's move to you on data centers. I mean, there are just some incredible numbers that we've seen emerging, as it relates to the hyperscaler investment that we're seeing in building out the infrastructure. I know data centers is something that you have focused tremendously on in your research, bringing our global perspectives together. Obviously, Europe sits within that. And there is a market here in Europe that might be more challenged. But I'm interested to understand how you're thinking about framing the whole data center story? Implications for Europe. Do European companies feed off some of that U.S. hyperscaler CapEx? How should we be thinking about that through the European lens? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. So, big question, Paul. What… Paul Walsh: We've got a few minutes! Emmet Kelly: We've got a few minutes. What I would say is there was a great paper that came out from Harvard just two weeks ago, and they were looking at the scale of data center investments in the United States. And clearly the U.S. economy is ticking along very, very nicely at the moment. But this Harvard paper concluded that if you take out data center investments, U.S. economic growth today is actually zero. Paul Walsh: Wow. Emmet Kelly: That is how big the data center investments are. And what we've said in our research very clearly is if you want to build a megawatt of data center capacity that's going to cost you roughly $35 million today. Let's put that number out there. 35 million. Roughly, I'd say 25… Well, 20 to 25 million of that goes into the chips. But what's really interesting is the other remaining $10 million per megawatt, and I like to call that the picks and shovels of data centers; and I'm very convinced there is no bubble in that area whatsoever.So, what's in that area? Firstly, the first building block of a data center is finding a powered land bank. And this is a big thing that private equity is doing at the moment. So, find some real estate that's close to a mass population that's got a good fiber connection. Probably needs a little bit of water, but most importantly needs some power. And the demand for that is still infinite at the moment. Then beyond that, you've got the construction angle and there's a very big shortage of labor today to build the shells of these data centers. Then the third layer is the likes of capital goods, and there are serious supply bottlenecks there as well.And I could go on and on, but roughly that first $10 million, there's no bubble there. I'm very, very sure of that. Paul Walsh: And we conducted some extensive survey work recently as part of your analysis into the global data center market. You've sort of touched on a few of the gating factors that the industry has to contend with. That survey work was done on the operators and the supply chain, as it relates to data center build out. What were the key conclusions from that? Emmet Kelly: Well, the key conclusion was there is a shortage of power for these data centers, and… Paul Walsh: Which I think… Which is a sort of known-known, to some extent. Emmet Kelly: it is a known-known, but it's not just about the availability of power, it's the availability of green power. And it's also the price of power is a very big factor as well because energy is roughly 40 to 45 percent of the operating cost of running a data center. So, it's very, very important. And of course, that's another area where Europe doesn't screen very well.I was looking at statistics just last week on the countries that have got the highest power prices in the world. And unsurprisingly, it came out as UK, Ireland, Germany, and that's three of our big five data center markets. But when I looked at our data center stats at the beginning of the year, to put a bit of context into where we are…Paul Walsh: In Europe… Emmet Kelly: In Europe versus the rest. So, at the end of [20]24, the U.S. data center market had 35 gigawatts of data center capacity. But that grew last year at a clip of 30 percent. China had a data center bank of roughly 22 gigawatts, but that had grown at a rate of just 10 percent. And that was because of the chip issue. And then Europe has capacity, or had capacity at the end of last year, roughly 7 to 8 gigawatts, and that had grown at a rate of 10 percent. Now, the reason for that is because the three big data center markets in Europe are called FLAP-D. So, it's Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. We had to put an acronym on it. So, Flap-D. Good news. I'm sitting with the tech guys. They've got even more acronyms than I do, in their sector, so well done them. Lee Simpson: Nothing beats FLAP-D. Paul Walsh: Yes. Emmet Kelly: It's quite an achievement. But what is interesting is three of the big five markets in Europe are constrained. So, Frankfurt, post the Ukraine conflict. Ireland, because in Ireland, an incredible statistic is data centers are using 25 percent of the Irish power grid. Compared to a global average of 3 percent.Now I'm from Dublin, and data centers are running into conflict with industry, with housing estates. Data centers are using 45 percent of the Dublin grid, 45. So, there's a moratorium in building data centers there. And then Amsterdam has the classic semi moratorium space because it's a small country with a very high population. So, three of our five markets are constrained in Europe. What is interesting is it started with the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The UK has made great strides at attracting data center money and AI capital into the UK and the current Prime Minister continues to do that. So, the UK has definitely gone; moved from the middle lane into the fast lane. And then Macron in France. He hosted an AI summit back in February and he attracted over a 100 billion euros of AI and data center commitments. Paul Walsh: And I think if we added up, as per the research that we published a few months ago, Europe's announced over 350 billion euros, in proposed investments around AI. Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. It's a good stat. Now where people can get a little bit cynical is they can say a couple of things. Firstly, it's now over a year since the Mario Draghi report came out. And what's changed since? Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. And secondly, when I look at powering AI, I like to compare Europe to what's happening in the United States. I mean, the U.S. is giving access to nuclear power to AI. It started with the three Mile Island… Paul Walsh: Yeah. The nuclear renaissance is… Emmet Kelly: Nuclear Renaissance is absolutely huge. Now, what's underappreciated is actually Europe has got a massive nuclear power bank. It's right up there. But unfortunately, we're decommissioning some of our nuclear power around Europe, so we're going the wrong way from that perspective. Whereas President Trump is opening up the nuclear power to AI tech companies and data centers. Then over in the States we also have gas and turbines. That's a very, very big growth area and we're not quite on top of that here in Europe. So, looking at this year, I have a feeling that the Americans will probably increase their data center capacity somewhere between – it's incredible – somewhere between 35 and 50 percent. And I think in Europe we're probably looking at something like 10 percent again. Paul Walsh: Okay. Understood. Emmet Kelly: So, we're growing in Europe, but we're way, way behind as a starting point. And it feels like the others are pulling away. The other big change I'd highlight is the Chinese are really going to accelerate their data center growth this year as well. They've got their act together and you'll see them heading probably towards 30 gigs of capacity by the end of next year. Paul Walsh: Alright, we're out of time. The TMT Edge is alive and kicking in Europe. I want to thank Emmett, Lee and Adam for their time and I just want to wish everybody a great day today. Thank you.(Applause) That was my conversation with Adam, Emmett and Lee. Many thanks again to them.
