Securing capital for large-scale data center developments in APAC is becoming more complex as costs rise, power constraints reshape site selection, and investor risk appetites evolve.

In response, developers and operators are exploring joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and alternative funding models to structure deals and bring new capacity online.

Tier 2 markets are attracting unprecedented investment, driven by the rapid growth of digital economies, rising data consumption, and data localization regulations. Many operators and investors are expanding beyond established hubs like Singapore, Japan, and Australia to capitalize on lower costs, untapped demand, and government incentives. But has the move lived up to expectations? Have the advantages outweighed the challenges, or have infrastructure limitations, power availability, and regulatory complexities slowed progress?
This panel brings together data center providers and investors to evaluate their experiences in Tier 2 markets across the region. Panelists will explore the financial returns, operational realities, and long-term viability of these investments. Have these markets delivered the scale, resilience, and growth potential needed to justify the shift? Or are industry players encountering unforeseen risks that could limit expansion?
