Advancing Data Center Construction West is the leading conference for the teams actually building data centers — general contractors, MEP engineers, commissioning agents, and owners’ representatives. While most DC events focus on IT and operations, this one zeroes in on the physical construction side: site selection, structural design, electrical and mechanical buildout, commissioning, and schedule management.

The 2026 West edition in Phoenix kicks off a busy year for the Advancing Construction series, which also includes regional events in Herndon, Chicago, Dallas, and the flagship East conference in Atlanta. If your work involves turning a plot of land into a functioning data center, this is where your peers will be.
