Day 1 · Keynote Presentation
When safety fails on a
hyperscale build, the owner pays.
The Day 1 opening keynote tackles the question most developers in this room have avoided: what does construction risk actually cost when you own the project? This isn’t a safety lecture — it’s a financial and operational story about what happens when you treat construction risk as someone else’s problem, and what a proactive safety program built around real-time data actually changes.
1. The assumption that costs owners most
“That’s the GC’s problem.” Why that framing is the most expensive mistake a developer can make on a project where every delayed day has a dollar value.
2. The four hidden risks that kill your schedule
Trade stacking, communication failures, poor work sequencing, and planning breakdowns — the predictable outputs of a complex build under intense schedule pressure.
3. What real-time AI visibility actually changes
How one safety professional can maintain visibility across a global portfolio of active data center projects — and why end-of-day reports don’t protect your schedule.
4. Three things to do before the next project breaks ground
Practical actions for owners: what goes in the contract, what independent eyes on site are worth, and what real-time data does that a GC report doesn’t.

Day 2 · Panel Discussion
Whose Risk Is It Anyway?
Owner, builder, and insurer. Three seats at the table with fundamentally different relationships to the same incident. This panel puts the uncomfortable questions on the table — about accountability, about what AI actually changes, and about the gap between a safety report and safety reality. Cory Linton, CEO of Safety Mojo, moderates.

About the Summit
The most concentrated room of data center construction decision-makers in Northern Virginia.
The 7th Data Center Design, Engineering & Construction Summit by Future Bridge Americas brings together the C-suite and VP-level leadership building and operating next-generation data center infrastructure. Ashburn, Virginia — the data center capital of the world — is the right backdrop for two days of serious conversation about what it actually takes to deliver these projects.

Selected Discussion Questions — What the panel will tackle
Risk & Cost
What does a serious incident on a hyperscale project actually cost when you add everything up — stoppages, claims, litigation, remobilization? And what does it cost in time on a project where every week of delay has a contractual consequence?
AI in the Field
What’s the version of AI in construction safety that’s actually making a difference today — not in a pilot, not in a brochure, but on an active hyperscale build? What drives field adoption at scale — and what kills it fastest?
Underwriting
An owner walks in with real-time AI-generated compliance data versus end-of-month GC reports. What’s the difference in how you underwrite those two risks — and what does that documentation do when something goes wrong?
Accountability
When you have data showing a contractor is underperforming in week three — not at closeout — what actually happens? How does AI-generated data change that conversation versus a verbal report?
Looking Forward
The workforce is getting less experienced at the exact moment projects are getting bigger and faster. Is AI part of how we close that gap — or is this a culture problem technology can’t solve?

About Safety Mojo
The only safety platform mandated on hyperscale data center programs.
Safety Mojo is a safety management platform built for the complexity of large construction projects — the kind where you have dozens of trades stacking simultaneously, workforces that span two languages, and an owner who needs to know what’s happening right now, not at the end of the day.
We’ve built deep programs with the owners and GCs pushing the hardest data center construction programs in North America. Our platform is the required safety infrastructure on some of the largest hyperscale builds underway. If you’re building data centers at scale and you’re still flying blind between morning huddles, that’s a problem we can solve.
