What Can You Expect at Advancing Data Center Construction Midwest 2026?
Advancing Data Center Construction Midwest brings together 200+ hyperscalers, colocation providers, developers, general contractors, designers, and trade partners shaping how mission-critical facilities are planned and delivered across the Midwest.
Across two main conference days and a dedicated Pre‑Conference Focus Day, attendees will explore every stage of project delivery and how leading organizations are overcoming the biggest trends and challenges across the Midwest: from future projects, grid delays and union workforce dynamics to permitting complexity, long‑lead equipment constraints and winter logistics.
Whether you operate solely in the Midwest or are expanding into the region, this event provides the intelligence, partnerships and confidence needed to deliver faster, safer and more predictable data center projects.
