The NEO Cloud & AI Factory
The Neo Cloud & the AI Factory
Hosted by
NYSE x Silicon Data × Compute Exchange x Guidepoint
Overview
This invitation-only gathering brings together founders, operators, infrastructure providers, and capital markets leaders to explore how the “neo cloud” is being built—and how real AI factories are already operating today.
As AI infrastructure shifts away from monolithic hyperscalers toward distributed, performance-aware, market-priced compute, startups are defining new architectures for training, inference, and scaling. This event focuses on real use cases, real workloads, and real economics—not theory.
Core Themes
• What is the New Cloud?
Beyond hyperscalers: modular, distributed, performance-priced compute.
• The AI Factory in Practice
How startups are designing AI factories using GPU clusters, benchmarking, orchestration, and capital-efficient procurement.
• From Compute to Markets
How transparent pricing, indices, and exchange-based procurement unlock efficiency, predictability, and scale.
• Powering the Stack
How compute, power, data, and markets come together to enable the next generation of AI companies.
Format
• Invite-based gathering (founders, infra teams, investors, cloud & GPU buyers)
• Short fireside chats / lightning talks from:
• AI startups running real production workloads
• New-cloud / GPU infrastructure providers
• Market & pricing leaders
• High-signal networking (no sales pitches, real conversations)
Why This Matters (and Why Now)
• AI workloads are outgrowing traditional cloud models
• GPU availability, performance variance, and pricing opacity are now core business risks
• Startups need factory-like compute operations, not ad-hoc cloud usage
• Markets and infrastructure must evolve together
Sponsorship Model
Sponsored by a small number of aligned partners:
• New-cloud providers
• GPU infrastructure operators
• AI startups with meaningful production workloads
• Energy / power-adjacent partners (optional)
