  1. T7: KEYNOTE DATA CENTER
    Data Centers in France: Between the AI Rush, Colocation, and the Myth of Hyperscale
    • Acceptability and sovereignty
    As artificial intelligence (AI) and digital applications boom, data centers are becoming critical infrastructure at the heart of economic, environmental, and sovereignty issues. In France, this trend is accelerating thanks to government initiatives. This roundtable aims to shed light on the realities behind the hype: industrial opportunities, energy constraints, technological dependencies, and political trade-offs. A discussion to move beyond marketing rhetoric … Read More

    "Cloud-first" is no longer enough: Where should AI actually run?
    • "Cloud-first" Is No Longer Enough: Moving Toward an Optimized AI Infrastructure
    “Cloud-first” has long been the rule. But when it comes to AI workloads and constraints related to cost, latency, sovereignty, compliance, and energy consumption, this principle is reaching its limits. Should AI be run in the public cloud, in a multi-cloud environment, in a hybrid setup, at the edge, or on-premises? The choice of infrastructure has become a strategic decision, where performance, cost control, and vendor dependency must now be balanced.

    When Automation Disrupts Production: Who Is to Blame?
    • AI in pipelines raises questions of liability
    Automation speeds up deployments, but a pipeline error or a poorly controlled script can bring production to a standstill in a matter of minutes. When the tool acts on its own, who is responsible? Between explainability, human oversight, and technical safeguards, how can we secure increasingly autonomous deployment pipelines? The debate over responsibility in the age of continuous automation continues.

    Is AI accelerating the threat faster than we can contain it?
    • Forwards adapt faster than defenders
    • Cyber risk is both geopolitical and regulatory
    Today, AI makes it possible to automate phishing, industrialize fraud, and launch faster, more sophisticated attacks. As this trend accelerates, are defensive capabilities keeping pace? Between defensive AI, budget constraints, and regulatory requirements, can organizations truly contain the threat? A strategic debate on the balance between offensive capabilities and defensive maturity.

    AI projects are on the rise, but many remain stuck at the pilot stage. Why do some initiatives move into production while others get bogged down? Drawing on real-world experiences, this session analyzes the organizational, technical, and regulatory barriers to scaling up. An unfiltered discussion on what does—and does not—contribute to the successful industrialization of AI.

    As the cloud expands into industrial environments, security can no longer be an afterthought. Access, data, monitoring, technical dependencies, business continuity: every architectural choice can create a point of vulnerability or strengthen resilience. Should we wait to make corrections after systems are deployed, or should we build security in from the design phase? A discussion on the trade-offs that must be made early on to protect industrial environments before an incident occurs.

    • Control vs. Freedom in a Multi-Cloud Environment
    For twenty years, managed services have been based on a simple model: billing people to monitor screens, escalate tickets, and execute runbooks. This model is collapsing in the face of environments that have become too complex, too fast, and too critical for human intervention. Alexandre Pereira, founder of 2501, introduces a paradigm shift: agent-based AIOps. Not a co-pilot that makes suggestions, but autonomous agents that diagnose, decide, and remediate in production, through environments… Read More

    Can we turn waste heat from the data center into a useful resource?
    • Energy at the heart of projects
    • Building a data center
    Data centers, the invisible pillars of the digital world, generate a considerable amount of so-called “waste” heat, which is often dissipated without being put to use. Yet in this era of energy transition, this heat represents a resource that remains largely untapped.  This roundtable aims to explore concrete opportunities for recovering and reusing this energy, while examining the technical, economic, and regional limitations of these solutions. Between innovation, c … Read More

    Mitigating Cyber Risks and Shadow AI: The Benefits of Secure Browsing with Chrome Enterprise
    • Identity has become the primary target
    • Forwards adapt faster than defenders
    • Resilience is more important than prevention alone
    Given the limitations of traditional tools (EDR, VPN) outside of managed fleets, the browser has become the cornerstone of cybersecurity. This workshop demonstrates how Chrome Enterprise Premium secures browsing for all employees (both internal and contractors), neutralizes advanced threats (phishing, malware), and manages shadow IT without slowing down devices or disrupting the user experience.

    AI: Can Profitability Withstand Rising Energy and Carbon Costs?
    • Industrialisation makes all the difference
    Investments in AI are skyrocketing, but their profitability remains difficult to measure over the long term. Beyond the promised productivity gains, companies must factor in costs that are often underestimated: infrastructure, monitoring, compliance, energy consumption, and carbon footprint. This roundtable discussion will examine what profitable AI truly means in the medium term, when technology decisions must also take into account their energy, financial, and environmental costs.
