Powering AI: The Infrastructure Behind the Opportunity
Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn’t just a technology story. It’s an infrastructure story.
As AI adoption accelerates, Brookfield estimates that trillions of dollars of investment may be needed across data centers, compute infrastructure, power generation, transmission and connectivity1. However – growing demand alone doesn’t make an opportunity an attractive investment.
Join Brookfield for a discussion on the physical infrastructure behind AI—and what investors should consider as the opportunity evolves.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- Why power may be a significant constraint on AI growth
- Where investment may be needed across the AI infrastructure value chain
- What can separate attractive infrastructure investments from simple exposure to AI growth
- How infrastructure may contribute to diversification and income potential

Smart factories powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming industries, driving demand for private capital as companies look to upgrade legacy systems and scale operations. Private equity firms with deep operating expertise are well positioned to lead this shift—modernizing businesses and enabling long-term value creation.
Looking ahead to 2026, credit markets are being reshaped by capex-heavy growth across various sectors—trends that require more flexible financing beyond traditional banks. As a result, the private and liquid credit markets are settling into a symbiotic coexistence, with borrowers and investors moving seamlessly between them. In this environment, the key question isn’t private or liquid credit, but rather how best to gain exposure to both as complementary potential sources of income stability, diversification and risk-mitigation potential.
Market volatility may persist, but it can potentially also create opportunities across private markets. Join us for a discussion on portfolio construction and diversification. We’ll share key charts and insights across private equity, real estate, infrastructure and credit—and highlight areas of focus across private markets.
Join Brookfield REIT’s CIO, Alex Elawadi, to explore the evolving landscape, where Brookfield is seeing compelling opportunities and how private real estate can compliment a diversified portfolio.
