In Part 2 of Kevin Brown's conversation with Vlad Galabov, the
host of The AIDC Debate podcast, the duo explores what it means
when a new data center comes to town and how people are becoming
acutely aware of new data center buildouts.

Focusing on a new development project in the London area, they
discuss the challenges and opportunities for operators facing
local opposition - from community concerns and planning debates
to transparency, regulations, sustainability and the future of
urbanized data centers.
