2026-11-09 Keizai SV Powering AI with JCCNC, JHTC, and GABA

Panel Discussion on the question: where will the energy to power AI come from? Powering the AI Revolution ​AI is reshaping the economy, from generative models and autonomous agents to robotics, manufacturing, and Physical AI. Behind every breakthrough sits a question that gets far less attention: where will the energy come from? ​The next wave of AI needs huge GPU clusters, more powerful chips, and a fast-growing fleet of data centers. All of that is pushing electricity demand to levels almost no one predicted a few years ago. Governments, utilities, tech companies, and investors are now facing the same question: how do we power the future of intelligence? ​We'll dig into: • ​Can energy generation keep up with AI's appetite for power? • ​What roles will nuclear, renewables, grid modernization, and storage play? • ​How will the race for AI leadership reshape global energy markets and national competitiveness? • ​What does this mean for innovation hubs like Silicon Valley? ​Join experts from AI, energy, infrastructure, and tech policy for a conversation about one of the most important and least understood challenges of the AI era. 🎤 Moderated by Michal Lev-Ram, Executive Editor of EDGE, Morgan Stanley 🎤 Panelists: To be announced soon 🍽️ Light snacks and refreshments ​📅 Tuesday, November 10, 2026 · 6:00–9:00 PM PT 📍 Fenwick & West LLP, 801 California Ave., Mountain View, CA 94041 ​Organized by the Japanese Chamber of Commerce of Northern California (JCCNC), US-Japan Business Forum Silicon Valley (Keizai Silicon Valley), the Jewish High Tech Community (JHTC), and the German American Business Association (GABA) Fees: $36 (inclusive fees): Regular Registration by Monday, November 9 (Noon) NO Walk-ins (Seats are limited and no walk-ins are available) For more details, including speaker bios, visit https://keizai.org
