While data centers are engineered for uptime, the threat of fire remains one of the most catastrophic — yet often underestimated — risks. Recent incidents globally have shown that even Tier III and Tier IV facilities are not immune to electrical faults, battery fires, and human error.

Together with Uptime Institute, JLL, and Commtech Asia; Joe Tang, Partner, and the panel will dive into the real-world case studies, how tenants can assess fire readiness when choosing or auditing a provider, and how operators must evolve their risk mitigation strategies in a world of higher rack densities, lithium-ion batteries, and AI-driven power loads.
