Designing the Data Centers Redefining Tomorrow’s Digital Economy

Future-Proof Facility Design for High-Density, High-Performance Workloads to Deliver New Capacity Faster Amid the AI Boom

Advancing Data Center Design & Engineering East returns for its second year as the only technical forum dedicated to data center design across the eastern United States, bringing together 100+ leaders from hyperscale, neocloud, colocation, architecture, and engineering firms to design and deploy hyper-efficient, AI-ready, and sustainable facilities faster than ever before.

Whether navigating community pushback, rethinking power strategies, integrating new technologies, mitigating late-stage delivery risk, or unlocking capacity with modularization, this is your team’s definitive opportunity to engage with sessions that are focused, practical, and full of real-world insights you can put into action straight away. Gain step-by-step insight from 22+ leading data center owners, operators, and design partners – covering real project experiences, challenges, and lessons learned – while benefiting from peer-to-peer knowledge-sharing so you can benchmark your approach, build critical partnerships, and tackle the design decisions shaping every next-generation facility across Eastern States.
