As we conclude DCD>Connect Virginia, let's be brave and delve into the latest developments in US politics.

Regardless of the President who will lead the US, they must bear numerous responsibilities, and their impact will be felt across many industries. But what will the future hold for the USA’s data center industry over the next four years? Should we be aware of potential market shocks that are politically motivated? How will each administration impact the industry's key challenges and opportunities? For example, if the Keystone Pipeline remains off or comes back online, will that improve energy availability? Or can this sector go it alone? Can our own industry leaders affect positive change and guide our own industry, regardless of who is in the White House? Join our final panel to discuss:

• Pledges: What promised changes could help or hinder data centers in the next four years?
• Regulation: How will regulatory decisions, or lack thereof, impact power supply, environmental constraints, and supply chain demands?
• Reality: Are we underestimating the extent to which any US administration can influence the direction of the data center industry?
