How to choose the right room

Facility design and operation

DCD Connect and Data Center World provide infrastructure and operator context. Check the program for cooling, power, water and engineering roles, then qualify who can sponsor the project you support.

Development and power finance

Infocast PowerUp focuses on development, power and investment. It is relevant to project planning and financing conversations, with a different audience from day-to-day facility operations.

Find the right project stage

A planned campus, a facility under construction and an operating site face different constraints. Research capacity, grid connection, cooling design and procurement partners before approaching a target account.

PowerUp Data Centers - Investment 2026

Tickets

On request

McLean, USA · North America · Oct 27-29, 2026

PowerUp Data Centers - Investment is a three-day Infocast conference at the Hilton McLean Tysons Corner in McLean, Virginia, focused on the emerging hybrid deal structures financing data-center and power-generation buildouts, bringing together capital sources, developers, and service providers around data-center power infrastructure deals.

Who's thereThe official event page lists more than 50 named organizations across three groups without stating an overall attendee count or seniority split: project developers and operators including Aligned Data Centers, Capstone DC, DC Blox, Soluna, The AES Corporation, and TotalEnergies; capital sources including Bank of America, Barings, BlackRock, I Squared Capital, Macquarie, Nuveen, and Partners Group; and service providers including Black & Veatch, JLL, Moelis, and White & Case. The page also carries a testimonial referencing a July 2026 PowerUp Data Centers event, and Infocast runs a separate PowerUp Data Centers edition on July 20-22, 2027, so the named-company list may reflect the series generally rather than a confirmed roster for this exact October date.

TicketsExact registration tiers are not published on the official event page; the only disclosed figure is 'save up to $800 with Early Bird Pricing,' with no stated early-bird deadline or standard price visible without entering the registration flow. Group rates are available for 3 or more attendees via [email protected], and a separate Government, Academic & Non-Profit registration category exists though its rates are also unpublished. Complimentary passes are offered only to qualifying Data Center Developers, Owners/Operators, Corporate Tenants, and Hyperscalers, with Powered Land and Energy Campus developers explicitly excluded; a maximum of one pass per organization, first-come first-served, subject to Infocast review. All other attendee types, including most sellers in our niches, pay an undisclosed standard fee.

Access & notesDates, venue, 95 speakers, 16 sessions, the $800 early-bird claim, the $249/Oct 5 hotel cutoff, and the comp-pass rules are all confirmed on official Infocast pages. Exact ticket pricing sits behind the registration flow and is not visible on any public page; budget for a standard-rate paid pass unless your company qualifies for a complimentary developer/operator/hyperscaler pass, and note that Powered Land and Energy Campus developers are specifically excluded from that comp tier. Registration contact: [email protected] or (818) 888-4444. This event runs Oct 27-29, close on the calendar to ACORE Grid Forum (Oct 22) and PACK EXPO International (Oct 18-21), all in the same late-October window.

Room: The official page cites 95 expert speakers and 16 sessions over three days but does not publish a total attendee count for this edition; the 50-plus named companies are a sponsor/participant list rather than a verified headcount.

Go if You develop renewable power or PPAs, provide project finance, or sell energy-infrastructure services into data-center and hyperscaler power deals. Capital sources like BlackRock, Macquarie, and Bank of America attend alongside developers like Aligned Data Centers and TotalEnergies.

Skip if You sell ESG reporting, carbon accounting, circularity, or packaging. The attendee base and agenda are built around data-center power financing and deal structuring, not sustainability reporting or materials.

Worth knowing: Dates, venue, 95 speakers, 16 sessions, the $800 early-bird claim, the $249/Oct 5 hotel cutoff, and the comp-pass rules are all confirmed on official Infocast pages.
