SC 26 - Chicago

November 15-20, 2026
Chicago, IL
Organized by Super Compute

About this event

SC (Supercomputing Conference) is the premier event for high-performance computing, drawing 15,000+ attendees to Chicago. SC has significant overlap with data center construction because HPC and AI facilities share the same infrastructure challenges โ€” extreme power density, advanced cooling, and high-reliability power distribution. The exhibit hall features computing hardware vendors, cooling system manufacturers, and infrastructure providers. For data center construction professionals, SC provides early visibility into the hardware requirements that will drive the next generation of facility designs.

Who should attend

HPC facility operators, research computing directors, cooling and power infrastructure vendors, and GCs pursuing government and research facility construction. Less relevant for traditional colocation/enterprise BD.
