• ✓Data center operators
• ✓Hyperscale and cloud infrastructure engineers
• ✓Hardware and systems engineers
• ✓Power and cooling specialists
• ✓OEMs, ODMs and silicon vendors
• ✓CTOs and heads of infrastructure planning AI capacity in Europe

If you run or buy data center capacity in Europe for AI workloads, this is where the hyperscalers and their hardware supply chain talk through open rack, power and cooling designs and show what has already been deployed in the region. The 2027 programme puts AI next to sustainability, heat reuse and power, which are the constraints European operators plan AI capacity around. Infrastructure leaders can use the three days to check vendor roadmaps against OCP-recognized designs and meet the operators who run them.
