CONNECT3CTDATA - Stadium Tour - Chicago

About this event

CONN3CTDATA's Atlanta event (#ATLDC26) represents a focused, intimate gathering of data center professionals in one of the Southeast's most dynamic markets. Unlike massive trade shows, this two-day event takes a unique approach by hosting sessions at Truist Park, creating an engaging environment that combines business content with memorable experiences. The conference kicks off with a factory tour at Metromont's facility in Hiram, GA, providing attendees with hands-on exposure to precast concrete manufacturing - a critical component in data center construction. The event's strength lies in its carefully curated panel discussions addressing real-world challenges facing the industry today. Sessions cover liquid cooling implementation from design through construction, community engagement strategies for navigating local politics and permitting, energy opportunities in the evolving grid landscape, and modular construction solutions that accelerate deployment timelines. The QTS Podcast Live session focuses on workforce development - a pressing concern as the industry faces talent shortages. What sets this event apart is its regional focus combined with national expertise. The Southeast Market Review session provides localized intelligence on development opportunities, regulatory landscapes, and infrastructure availability that's particularly valuable for companies expanding into Georgia, the Carolinas, and surrounding states. The format encourages meaningful networking through structured receptions and smaller group interactions, making it easier to forge substantive business relationships. At $695 for early bird pricing, the event offers exceptional value compared to larger conferences while maintaining high-quality content and speaker caliber. The venue choice at Truist Park adds a unique element that helps differentiate business discussions and creates memorable touchpoints for follow-up conversations. Limited ticket availability ensures an exclusive environment where attendees can engage directly with speakers and sponsors without competing with thousands of other participants.

Who should attend

Regional and national data center developers, colocation operators, hyperscale companies, and their ecosystem partners including construction firms, engineering consultants, and equipment vendors active in Southeast markets. Facility managers, real estate professionals, and business development executives seeking regional market intelligence and networking opportunities in an intimate setting should prioritize attendance.
