What would actually happen if every data centre in the world suddenly shut down?
In our very first episode, Nick Worpole (Strativ Group) sits down with Hana Sutton (JLL) to unpack one huge question:
β‘ Would the world end without data centres?
From banking and healthcare to flights, WhatsApp, AI and the cloud - this conversation explores just how dependent modern life has become on the digital infrastructure most people never think about.
Together, they break down:
π What happens in the first 30 seconds after data centres go offline
π± Why the internet, communication and cloud systems would collapse
βοΈ How travel, healthcare and financial services would be affected
β‘ The growing tension between AI, energy and infrastructure
ποΈ Why data centres have such a misunderstood public image
π Why the industry urgently needs new talent and fresh perspectives
This isnβt a technical lecture. Itβs an honest, fun & accessible conversation about the hidden infrastructure powering modern society - and the people behind it.
Whether you work in tech, are curious about AI, interested in sustainability, or just want to understand how the digital world actually functions, this episode is for you.
