Take Control of Your Data: The Future of Private Cloud & AI Infrastructure
Toyota Connected North America, Inc., 5905 Legacy Dr Ste. 210, Plano, TX, USFor our first Dallas TechXchange event of 2026, we’re excited to welcome Paul Rix, a serial entrepreneur and founder of GPCN (Global Private Cloud Network). With over 25 years of leadership across multiple successful exits (Including the foundational technology behind Adobe Experience Manager), Paul brings a uniquely informed and provocative perspective on the future of cloud and enterprise data.
In this featured talk, Paul will explore:
- Why the cloud is becoming private again — and what “private” means in a world that still demands global reach and low latency.
- How enterprises can break free from data lock-in — whether with hyperscalers, private cloud vendors, or OEM ecosystems.
- The new frontier of AI infrastructure — and why AI’s explosive growth requires companies to take back sovereignty over their data, move it freely, and architect for portability without the heavy costs of today’s environment.
- Lessons learned from Zanaris to GPCN — and how these insights shaped his vision for the next generation of cloud networks.
This is a must-attend session for technology leaders, architects, engineers, product managers, cloud strategists, and anyone interested in the intersection of AI, cloud modernization, data infrastructure, and enterprise transformation.
Join us as we kick off 2026 by looking ahead at one of the most important shifts happening in our industry: the evolution of cloud from centralized to sovereign, distributed, and truly data-portable.
