About Event

Hosted by the MIT Climate Project as part of Climate Week NYC 2026:

Data centers are at an inflection point, facing interconnected technical, operational, economic, and community constraints that demand cross-sector dialogue and innovation. The program will feature presentations from MIT researchers and spinouts developing technologies that will reshape the future of data centers, followed by a panel discussion exploring the sector’s most pressing opportunities and challenges.

The session will also bring together a panel of leaders from technology, infrastructure, capital, and policy to explore how a systems approach can reveal pathways to reshape data center performance, strengthen community outcomes, and support long-term operational viability. A dedicated showcase and networking period will allow attendees to connect directly with presenters and explore areas of mutual interest.

Location: Chelsea/Meatpacking District. Exact address provided upon RSVP approval.

A confirmed ticket is required for entry. No walk-ins or unregistered guests will be accommodated.
