Data Center Expo North America San José

Data Center Expo North America (DCENA) is the leading trade show for future-oriented data center infrastructure in North America. It is part of the internationally established TechEx event series, which creates global platforms for tomorrow’s technological innovations. Held annually, the event rotates between major U.S. metropolitan regions, ensuring a strong regional connection to current technological trends and local industry needs. The organizer is TechEx Events Ltd., a globally active trade fair company specializing in high-level B2B technology conferences.

DCENA stands out for its clear focus on the convergence of data center operations and digital key technologies. A central theme is the practical integration of artificial intelligence into infrastructure environments. The exhibition addresses all aspects of modern data center architecture—from AI-driven automation and energy-efficient cooling systems to climate-neutral solutions, network security, edge computing, supply chain optimization, 5G integration, and cloud migration.

Visitors are welcomed to a highly specialized platform showcasing the latest products and services, including advanced server technologies, modular colocation solutions, intelligent monitoring systems, automation tools, sustainable energy concepts, and state-of-the-art security applications. The event is geared toward IT architects, facility managers, energy providers, industrial enterprises, telecom operators, and public sector organizations.

DCENA is more than just a trade show—it is an interactive marketplace for knowledge exchange and innovation. Keynotes, live demonstrations, panel discussions, and real-world case studies presented by leading industry experts provide actionable strategies for building resilient, scalable, and AI-ready infrastructures. Formats such as best practice sessions and discussions on net-zero strategies offer fresh perspectives for a sustainable digital future.

Exhibitors represent a broad cross-section of the industry—from global hyperscalers and component manufacturers to system integrators and research institutions.

As part of the TechEx series, DCENA is held not only in North America but also across Europe and other global regions. Each edition connects local industry networks with international expertise, transforming each event into a truly global innovation forum.

The venues are equipped with modern exhibition infrastructure and benefit from excellent access to airports and public transportation. This makes DCENA one of the most strategically positioned and logistically accessible professional events in the data center sector worldwide.
