Mr. Hynes has expertise in social architecture, caring deeply for building a brighter future. His work ranges from building development to the design and construction of data centres and control systems that form part of his vision of efficient buildings that decrease carbon footprint and increase urban resilience. His energy and creativity are the drive behind Hynes Developments, a division of Hynes Group - a North American real estate development company focused on creating environments that are responsive to the needs of people, headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia.

DC1 is nearly at capacity and plans for DC2 are under way.
"We are pleased to welcome Stephen to our Advisory Board. Due to his commercial real estate experience and expertise in building environmentally responsible data centres, this collaboration will help AMPD carry forward the momentum from the launch of DC1, our operating proof-of-concept data centre that, with our current pipeline, we hope will exceed capacity. His guidance will help AMPD take the steps required to establish its position as an international internet infrastructure company, capable of meeting the highest environmental standards," stated AMPD CEO, Anthony Brown.
"I am confident that Stephen will strengthen our leadership team and propel us forward in our expansion and growth plans to benefit shareholders and customers. Physical distancing has accelerated an already growing demand for our remote computing solutions; with people working from home, the requirement for high-powered, low-latency remote computing has opened a window for AMPD to become a market leader in urban edge data centres built for sectors such as digital media and entertainment and artificial intelligence," added Mr. Brown.
Mr. Hynes commented, "Anthony and I share a common vision of adding value through innovation. AMPD's DC1 proof-of-concept data centre represents the future of compute infrastructure housed in sustainable data centres, realizing the full potential of the next generation of digital infrastructure that is accessible to customers in urban environments. I am excited to have the opportunity to be part of AMPD's journey of adding value through innovation".
Further to the announcement on January 21, 2020, plans for the development of AMPD's second data centre ("DC2") remain underway. Plans for DC2 were announced in parallel with Capilano University's Creative Technology Community Building, which is intended to house a three-megawatt data centre.
About AMPD Ventures Inc. AMPD specializes in providing high performance cloud and compute solutions for low latency applications, including video games and eSports, digital animation and visual effects, and big data collection, analysis, and visualization.
