Crusoe's Energy-First Vision for the AI Cloud | Chase Lochmiller | RAISE Summit 2026
Chase Lochmiller, Henri Delahaye, Francesc Campoy, DAN GALPIN, FRANCOIS BEAUFORT
Crusoe is establishing itself as a vertically integrated AI infrastructure leader by relocating compute from traditional hubs to stranded energy sources, having secured over 40 GW in its development pipeline with rapid construction cycles like the 11-month Abilene project. The company recently acquired Atero to deploy its "Crusoe Memory Alloy" for optimized inference, simultaneously shifting its product strategy toward distributed "AI factories" that monetize hardware investments through cost-effective token generation rather than large-scale training. As the industry transitions from theoretical announcements to execution over the next 24 months, Crusoe prioritizes operational resilience and end-user value delivery to dominate the emerging market for decentralized, energy-driven AI services.

WEKA, Cohere, Nebius: Rewriting the Rules Agentic AI and the Race to Scale
Lauren Vaccarello, Cécile Robert-Michon, Dan Shtan, VYACHESLAV TYKHONOVSKYI, DAN GALPIN, Danila
At a panel on AI infrastructure and economics, Weka CMO Lauren Vaccarello, Cohere's Cécile Robert-Michon, and Nabeus CTO Dan Galpin discussed the necessity of rethinking legacy systems to support massive scale and agentic AI. The speakers emphasized that modern requirements prioritize intelligence per token over raw cost efficiency, citing Nabeus's software-first approach that achieves near-NVIDIA benchmark performance without virtualization and Cohere's converged storage solutions that deliver 20x faster checkpointing. They concluded that enterprises must abandon rigid long-term planning in favor of short-cycle agility to navigate the rapidly shifting demands of privacy, security, and compute resources in a commercial AI landscape.
