PowerHouse Data Centers Exceeds Pace of Hyperscale Demand With New Hires in Development and Power Utility Disciplines.

As a trusted provider of data center development strategy and pioneer in powered core and shell solutions, PowerHouse has continuously scaled its operations and expertise. This growth not only surpasses the pace of execution and the standard of technical excellence required by the world’s most discerning clients but also underscores PowerHouse’s ability to anticipate tomorrow’s market requirements — and outpace its rate of change, delivering powerful competitive advantages for advanced deployments.

“When this industry calls on you to provide the best, you provide the best, which is why our hyperscale tenants trust us with their critical infrastructure,” comments Doug Fleit, CEO and Founder of PowerHouse and AREP. “Matt and William bring exceptionally rich acquisition, development, asset management, and power procurement experience to the fore. Mirroring our customers’ visionary natures with Powerhouse’s superior technical talent and strategy is our priority. Meeting sophisticated hyperscaler demands requires deftness and creativity, mastered by those who have seen it all, accomplished it all, and speak the industry’s language better than anyone. That’s the value our team continues to deliver.”

Monaco, responsible for data center development strategy, from site procurement and acquisitions to data center operator partnerships, brings over 20 years of strategic management expertise across telecom and digital infrastructure verticals, including 10+ years in data center asset management, to the PowerHouse team. Throughout his career, Monaco has worked in critical international and domestic markets, most recently serving as global head of asset management at Equinix, where he oversaw rapid growth in an $8 billion portfolio while maintaining ROIC (Return on Invested Capital) of +26%. His development acumen offers critical prescience, enabling efficient deployments with immediate power and connectivity with the capacity to grow unimpeded to gigawatt scale. By leveraging this experience, Monaco supports PowerHouse’s extraordinary growth strategy, identifying and developing the most advantageous sites to help define the future of hyperscalers’ and large operators’ most advanced use cases.

McCausland drives PowerHouse’s power utility strategy, leveraging over 15 years of experience, including leadership positions at Virginia’s Dominion Energy, where he led electricity infrastructure design and business partnerships on the company’s Innovation Team and oversaw the strategy, mobilization, and execution of its major Virginia-based data center projects. Having developed his skills directly with a primary utility provider offers PowerHouse customers access to strategic insider insights and efficiencies for optimized power acquisition processes. McCausland’s understanding of power utilities and his power procurement experience across key markets further amplifies PowerHouse’s ability to reliably source seamless power availability capable of supporting aggressive new demands from operators and hyperscale customers. McCausland’s role is instrumental in PowerHouse’s ability to continue rapidly deploying new facilities in key markets.

Monaco and McCausland exemplify the expanding bench of talent driving the company’s growth continuum. These new additions strengthen carefully cultivated partnerships within PowerHouse’s robust ecosystem of partners (alongside hyperscale developers, economic development leaders, architects, technical contractors, and essential utility providers), continuing its dedication to building advanced infrastructure with a new level of performance.

Breaking Stereotypes: New 3Fun Survey Reveals Media’s Missteps in Polyamory Representation

Published

on

By

NEW YORK, Jan. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Despite growing visibility, only 11% of polyamorous individuals feel media portrayals align with their real-life experiences, according to a new survey by 3Fun, the leading dating app for open-minded singles and partners seeking like-minded connections. The survey, conducted among 1,312 3Fun users, highlights how media misrepresentation shapes public perceptions, reinforces stereotypes, and impacts user expectations on dating platforms like 3Fun.

Key Findings from the 3Fun Survey:

Limited Representation: Nearly 40% of respondents said they rarely see polyamorous relationships in mainstream media, while 17% reported never seeing them at all.Social Media Influence: Platforms like Instagram and TikTok are driving perceptions of polyamory for 40% of users, far surpassing traditional media like TV and film (10%).Accuracy Issues: Only 11% of respondents described media portrayals as “very accurate,” while 52% rated them as “rarely accurate” or “completely inaccurate.”Mixed Progress: While 39% believe portrayals have improved, 38% said they’ve noticed no change at all.Normalization vs. Stereotypes: Social media is a double-edged sword—40% think it normalizes polyamory, but 34% believe it reinforces harmful stereotypes.Global vs. Local Media: Over 21% noted global media tends to be more open-minded about polyamory than local outlets, which are often conservative or avoid the topic altogether.

“The data from this survey shows how far we still have to go in achieving authentic representation of polyamory in media and pop culture,” said Max Ma, Founder and CEO of 3Fun. “These portrayals don’t just shape public opinion—they directly influence how our users feel about their relationships and their ability to live openly. At 3Fun, we’re dedicated to creating a supportive community where everyone can explore their desires without fear of judgment.”

The Real Impact of Misrepresentation

Nearly half of respondents (47%) identified cultural and societal norms as the biggest barriers to societal acceptance of polyamory—more significant than concerns about media portrayal or visibility. However, respondents emphasized that better representation would lead to:

Easier conversations about polyamory (32%)Improved understanding within their social circles (21%)

Gigi Engle, certified sex and relationship psychotherapist and 3Fun’s resident intimacy expert, echoed this sentiment: “Representation matters. Media has the power to normalize relationships and dismantle stereotypes, but only when done thoughtfully. This survey shows a clear need for creators to approach polyamory with authenticity and care.”

Creating a World Where Love Knows No Limits

The findings highlight the role platforms like 3Fun play in bridging the gap between perception and reality. With over 10 million downloads and 3 million verified active users worldwide, 3Fun provides a safe, inclusive space for polyamorous individuals and couples to connect, explore, and thrive.
