PowerStack Forum at Nest Climate Campus
From Capital to Capacity: Financing and Building the Power Infrastructure Required for AI and Industrial Growth
The next phase of AI and industrial growth will be determined by how quickly power can be financed, connected and built.
On the opening morning of Nest Climate Campus during Climate Week NYC, PowerStack will convene a focused group of senior leaders for a working conversation on the infrastructure required for the new power economy.
Building on PowerStack’s invite-only salons in New York, Washington, D.C., San Francisco and Dallas, the Nest forum brings the same curated, cross-sector conversation into the Climate Week ecosystem.
The forum will bring together leaders across AI, data centers, power generation, utilities, grid infrastructure, nuclear, advanced energy, infrastructure development, capital and policy.

Why Attend
Power demand is becoming one of the central constraints on AI deployment, industrial growth and economic competitiveness.
PowerStack is designed to bring the right people into one room: the capital providers, developers, energy companies, technology leaders, infrastructure operators and policymakers who can help move projects from ambition to execution.
Attendance is by invitation and intentionally limited to support a high-quality conversation.
