As Moore’s Law approaches its physical limits, the race is on to discover what comes next in computing. With AI usage accelerating at an unprecedented pace, the environmental impact is becoming impossible to ignore - by 2030, AI-driven electricity consumption could hit 1,500 TWh, rivalling the total power usage of India today.

But it's not just about electricity. The broader resource demands - greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption, and thermal management - are pushing current computing models to the brink. The need for sustainable, energy-efficient alternatives is not just important; it's urgent.

Some of these solutions stay rooted in silicon, reimagining what's possible with traditional architectures. Others venture into the extraordinary - quantum computing, photonics, and hybrid approaches that promise to redefine performance, scalability, and efficiency.

In this session, we’ll explore the frontiers of compute innovation with leaders who are shaping its future.

Expect bold insights and real-world perspectives as we ask:

  • Is it time to reinvent silicon?
  • How close are we to commercial quantum computing?
  • Will photonics finally deliver on its transformative promise?

Join us for a deep dive into the technologies redefining the future of computation - at the intersection of performance, power, and possibility.
