Corvex Hires Garrett Brams to Accelerate AI Infrastructure Growth

Brams will manage the end-to-end lifecycle of mission-critical projects, from initial site evaluation to leasing and final development. His appointment arrives as Corvex attempts to navigate the tightening constraints on power density and infrastructure complexity that currently limit large-scale AI deployments. Jay Crystal, co-CEO of Corvex, noted that Brams possesses the specific expertise needed to align capital and construction timelines, allowing the company to bring capacity online faster.

At Cushman & Wakefield, Brams specialized in advising institutional investors on infrastructure assets where speed-to-market and power resiliency were the primary performance metrics. He views the current AI landscape as an execution challenge rather than a simple real estate task, emphasizing that the ability to coordinate engineering, power acquisition, and site operations will determine which companies lead the next decade of computing.
