In this episode, Scott Willis, CEO of DartPoints, shares his leadership journey through long-distance telecom, wireless, and now data centers — and how DartPoints is meeting enterprise demands in non-tier-one markets. Scott outlines the company’s strategic recapitalization and shift toward owned assets to support 10–40 megawatt workloads, filling a critical gap left by hyperscaler-focused players. From future-proofing infrastructure and piloting next-gen cooling solutions to solving workforce challenges and scaling a mission-driven culture, Scott offers a clear roadmap for building sustainable, AI-ready ecosystems in edge-aligned environments.
