Banning any more drilling permits in NZ will make 0 difference to global emissions, world demand remains exactly the same ,in fact its growing. The exploration companies have simply packed up, taken their funds and equipment and gone to other countries to drill. The world is still hopelessly dependent on fossel fuels. Generating power with your own gas from a pipeline is far more efficient than importing coal and LNG. I'm all for rooftop solar however it's a long long way from generating enough to support industries like steel mills, dairy, pulp and paper to name a few, there are a lot of days when the sun doesn't shine in NZ. We could just kiss all these industries goodbye and loose thousands of jobs and billions in revenue, once again demand for these products would remain the same or grow as population increases and other countries would just increase their production to fulfill the demand. I'm all for clean green energy and I would love to see more of it however the day we make enough of it to replace fossil fuels completely is a long away if ever. The world is still hopelessly dependent on fossil fuels and I don't see why we should destroy our small fragile economy to make a token gesture to the environment while industrial giants like China and USA have a carbon footprint thousands of times worse than us and that's not likely to change in the next few decades.
First time? Not believable, maybe the first time in Auckland, but the power usage thing not being answered needs pushback, its a fair question.
The only reason it is harder to get cash is because banks are making it harder to access. It’s all about banks reducing services, making more money and control. This guy spoke mainly waffle.
One of the best business podcasts of New Zealand. You definitely deserve much more view and likes Madison...
This guys not very convincing
Great show as always
I find it hilarious that you can't disclose the location of this data centre, while across the ditch NextDC have these enormous red buildings that you cant miss 😅
Thank you for giving us an insider view into such a legendary investment company. Madison, your interviews are high quality, engaging, and well polished. Keep killing it 👏
I worked for Air NZ from 1989 to 1991. Low wage to start and not a single pay rise for cost of living or promotion. The place just fell apart. Rob Morrison is no friend of mine. He is a ruthless capitalist and a classic corporate raider. The NZ Gordon Geeko if ever I saw one. Don't fooled by his amiable grand-dad appearance. This man is a shark who is only interested in a profit at any cost. Because of him I left NZ for European where I earned a massively higher income. I was part of the NZ brain drain.
was he even at Air NZ?
@@Gumden Maddy said in the interview that he advised NZ on their 1989 privatisation, and no doubt took a hefty consult's fee for doing so, whilst at the same telling Air NZ to slash numbers by stopping all pay rises and freezing promotions and then on Xmas Eve 1989 carry out a mass slaughter of staff by literally terminating all the management, to create only 4 layers in NZ from cleaner to CEO. This meant that a lowly supervisor overnight became a department manager, without a pay rise, going from having responsibility for example 12 staff to hundreds.
@@grahamcook9289 Cool, where can I read up on this? Google searches are not turning up for me.
@grahamcook9289 Interesting, can you please provide more info on this, would love to read up on it. Google searches have not be fruitful.
The current wholesale electricity price is so high (at over $800/MWh, or 80c/kw-hr) - it would be cheaper to run a generator on petrol - paying road tax in the per litre price to-boot. Now that's saying something (ain't right). Obviously diesel would be cheaper again. These cost calcs allows for the inefficiencies of the petrol/diesel generator...
He must have made a positive impact on their lives to want to keep his legacy going. Just shows there are true friends in business.
Very interesting insights Madison, thanks for your efforts.
This is excellent information appreciate the insight and the access to such innovative people.
20 years strong in this company and I have been asking myself the same question, how will M&CO continue this growth.. data, battery recycling and healthcare. Interesting that RKLB have now included data as they're primary source of growth in the future development of space infrastructure, IFT+RKLB=?
Its nice to see the emotional side in the end.. love these episodes.. keep them coming
Very interesting thanks for giving us a glimpse.
Hindsight is 20/20!
Great work so good to get a peak behind the curtain, and see the development of the company over time and to see that even the "big game" fishers don't always land the big fish, I missed the boat on investing earlier on this stock but happy to say it has been one of my better performing DCA stocks in my portfolio since 2021. On a related note would be super interested to see a piece from you on Black Pearl Group ticker BPG, Their model/strategy is very intriguing I see big things on their horizon.
Hi Madison, this series is actually really good. Keep up the good work. Your subscriber and view counts are relatively low, but the quality is insane! You'll be a superstar in no time.
Thanks! I've being doing this show for 1.5 years but only just started my own TH-cam channel. Hence the low views/subs. Every one counts so thanks for your support!
I love this deep dive into a relatively unknown business story outside of the NZ investment community. So rare to see Marko talking openly and candidly about his role. They’re normally such a closed doors fortress quietly delivering world class performance - so it’s brilliant so see you crack open the Morrison portcullis. Scoop! 🎉 Also intelligent questioning without the gotcha sound bite media approach that irritates so many of us. . . Brilliant.
Great work. A good look under the hood - as an investor I can only get so much. It makes me feel good about my stake. Thanks
This episode was such a joy to make - we spent weeks making it perfect and I laughed and teared up in the process. A real privilege to have this kind of access into a company's history and share it with you. Hope you enjoy it!
Great, another dose of leather clad Maddy. I like it. Keep the good stuff coming woman.

Good thing with this data center its NZ based as most of them are overseas so its peace of mind for local businesses but its a competitive business as most corporations would rather deal with the big boys that being google, Amazon & Microsoft. So what's the point of difference -give us a good reason why we should host our business with you over the likes of Google or Amazon.
Maddy, I luv the leather and the whole Morticia Adams thing going on! You've gotta do Only Fans.
Makes sense. The people who got rich during the California Gold Rush weren't the gold miners, they were the ones selling tools such as shovels and picks. Levi Strauss was one of those who "struck it rich" by providing durable clothing to miners.
This is seriously high quality content
Why do we need data centres? "Privacy" is not yours, and this is demonstrated by the existance of these centres.
It's promising to see infrastructure development advancing in New Zealand. Go tech..

Asset won’t last to years. Currently technical obsolescence occurs occurs within 20 years but this is likely to shorten
Lmao do you really think you’ve spotted something want teams of highly educated tech engineers haven’t? 😂
@@dynamo1796was referring to CEO comment of 50 year life expectancy. I’ve been designing, building and operating data centres around the world for 25 years and am simply saying that anything they have now will be obsolete - even if stillin good condition - in less than 20 yrs. and depending on spec maybe much sooner
@@gregmorgan8350 A big question is how long all these solar and wind farms will last and if it will be long enough for a return on investment. After watching the movie "Planet Of The Humans'" I doubt it.
lol "I am not allowed to tell you where we are in Auckland". This info is available online so why make it sound that you have lucrative access to a location that no one else is aware of? CDC has 2 locations in Auckland. Silverdale (29/31 Highgate Parkway, Silverdale, Auckland 0932) and Hobsonville (32 Westpoint Drive, Hobsonville, Auckland 0618)
Yeah agree it was a stupid sensationalist comment. There’s tons of info out there on where DCs are located around the world
Lol. CDC has more than 2 locations. The muggles don’t know about Platform 3/4. Only those with lucrative access. Nice job Madison 👍🏽
Minimising the threat of a terrorist attack. A lot of the stuff in the cloud is not backed up.
amazing interview your content just keeps getting better!
“Is this place stacked up with NVIDIA GPUs or just CPUs?” Way to tell the guy you know less than nothing about data centres lol. That’s like asking a chef if his kitchen is stacked up with taps or power outlets.
@@dynamo1796 24 years in IT here, and I found it an excellent question. Jason Boyes talked a lot about AI, but different types of AI need different processing units. GPUs are heavily used for training deep learning models as they excel at parallel processing, which allows them to handle many tasks simultaneously. They're commonly used in tasks like training neural networks, image and video processing, and large-scale data analysis. They significantly speed up the training process of AI models compared to CPUs. GPUs are ideal for the large-scale matrix and vector operations required in AI computations. CPUs, on the other hand, are general-purpose processors that handle a wide range of tasks, including running operating systems, managing memory, and performing sequential processing tasks. CPUs are often used for tasks that require complex logic, lower amounts of parallelism, or when power efficiency is more critical. CPUs are used for running AI inference tasks, especially when the model has already been trained, and for tasks where the data size or complexity doesn't justify the use of GPUs. This question alone tells us what they're using the data centre for, and potentially who the customer base is at this moment in time.
Too big to fail then, hey? No, really - do let us put all our security in one basket.
What makes you say that? The country doesn’t run off one data centre lol
Everyone from Auckland is now trying to figure out where it is 😂
It’s literally available online.
You drive right past it on the motorway past silverdale
My thoughts are, data is the new digital oil. my investments would be in the energy they need to run these data centres. They wouldn't tell us how much energy they use, some AI data centres are using 10 x the amount of a normal data centre, ones in America are talking about having there own mini nuclear reactor. Who is going to update the Auckland power grid?
If you have a look at all of our power companies you will find their Price to Earnings (PE Ratio) shows they are all overpriced and their dividends are very poor returns, but they're considered safe so people will pour their life savings into it as everyone needs electricity.
@@Delosian I was thinking more gas and oil. NZ is short on gas.
CDC sounds like a natural partnership with Central Digital Currency
Digital prison you mean.
Good content mate. I did my part with that 1.1b I did $100 👍
Thanks Madison. I'm an individual shareholder of Infratil and it's helpful to get a peek into the philosophy that drives their decision making. This is where your questioning and analysis really shines. What I would appreciate after these interviews is for you to end with a pertinent summary and perhaps a personal view of whether the future is positive or otherwise for the organization concerned. You have sufficient experience now not to be wary of forming your own opinion and sharing that with your audience.
I think she would lose her ability to get interviews with industry leaders if they knew she was going to post an opinion in the media on their business. Even if she posted a positive opinion on each that can backfire as years ago media and sports stars promoted finance companies and when they crashed it tarnished their reputation. If you are worried about IT industry shareholder risk you only have to look at what happened with Crowdstrike to see its not an entirely a risk free investment.
Glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate the idea but my view doesn't matter, nor am I qualified to make one. I want you to be able to make up your own mind after watching these episodes. I'm just here to ask questions!
You guys see the money you can make. We just see all the power and water that will be plundered by your company to run services that will take more jobs from kiwis. Much like a parasite.
Great topic, thanks for that coverage. I'm a bit concern with the power consumption and cooling system. Our power production is struggling to keep up with the demand. So why Auckland? South of south island would have been more judicious for cooling efficiency and therefore more power efficient. Also rather than relying on the grid only, (generators are just a backup) a CDC in the countryside could partially generate its own power through wind-turbines and solar.
The types of workloads being put on these data centres tends to be quite latency sensitive, so they cite the data centres near to the population who would be using them. In addition, Auckland is where the majority of NZ's international and domestic connectivity converges - which makes it easier to hook them up to good internet connectivity. The southland data centre ideas proposed by a few companies would more be about less latency sensitive workloads. Think AI model training, data analytics/warehousing, data archiving etc.
Wind turbines and solar would not put out a high enough level of power for such a complex and it would be too intermittent anyway. There needs to be backup alternatives to the way IT systems operate anyway proven by the Crowdstrike IT crash that crippled most of the world.
Infratil also have energy investments which is handy.......
