The SIJORI Cloud & Datacenter Convention 2026 brings together industry leaders, investors, and operators to examine the rapid development of digital infrastructure across Singapore, Johor, and Batam. As the SIJORI Growth Triangle gains global attention, the programme looks at where capital is being deployed, what is driving demand, and how the different parts of the ecosystem are responding and innovating.
Sessions will deep dive into the practical considerations behind the next phase of compute capacity, including site selection, cross-border infrastructure models, and the increasing role of AI workloads. Discussions will also address how developers and operators are rethinking design and deployment, moving from standalone facilities to more integrated and scalable platforms.
With growing pressure on power and resources, the agenda covers grid readiness, long-term energy planning, and advances in cooling technologies. Operational specifics, reliability and risk management in more complex environments will also be examined while fostering crucial partnerships between hyperscalers, enterprises and local stakeholders.
With input and perspectives from across the value chain, the convention provides a clear view of current market conditions, operational realities, and what lies ahead for data center and hyperscale development in the SIJORI region that sets new benchmarks for the Asia-Pacific cloud and data center industry.
