Infrastructure as Destiny: The Compute-Capital-Cloud Trinity | RAISE Summit 2026
Stephanie Cohen, Don Barneston, Suresh Vasudevan, Greg Matson, Jeff Denworth, Jordan Nanos
Driven by a critical shortage of physical infrastructure against surging AI demand, the event highlights how neoclouds and vendors are shifting from speculative investment to immediate deployment through deep operational partnerships and aggressive capacity underwriting through 2028. Key industry leaders from companies like Cloudflare, Vast Data, and Solidigm discuss how architectural innovations in storage compression, isolated compute environments, and resilient interconnects are solving bottlenecks in copper, optics, and hardware failure rates. Looking ahead, the discussion projects a multi-decade expansion cycle marked by market consolidation, the emergence of machine-to-machine commerce, and the transition of AI inference into a ubiquitous cloud utility embedded within every application.

Beth Comstock: Creating a Culture of Innovation
Beth Comstock, Stephanie Cohen
Former GE Vice Chair Beth Comstock articulates a leadership philosophy that reframes storytelling as the engine of strategy and introversion as a critical organizational asset. Drawing on her tenure under Jack Welch and later at NBC, she critiques the "law of big numbers" for obscuring cohesive narratives while advocating for internal "permission slips" to bypass gatekeepers and foster innovation. Comstock concludes that overcoming structural resistance requires leaders to reframe rejection as deferred action and to prioritize human connection over rigid corporate hierarchies.
