Structure Research brings you infra/STRUCTURE week in Las Vegas in October 2026!
Join us again at Wynn Las Vegas for the seventh annual infra/STRUCTURE summit. The leading vendor-neutral digital infrastructure event that brings together data centre, neocloud, hyperscale, colocation, edge, and AI infrastructure executives from around the globe for private 1:1 meetings, roundtables, solution discovery in an intimate deal-making environment with high quality independent industry research as a back drop for frank discussions about the industry’s status and future directions.
Timeline for Week 2026:
Whether you're driving innovation in data centres, scaling GPU-powered cloud platforms, investing in AI infrastructure, or enabling ESG-focused energy solutions, this is the must-attend summit that delivers:
Curated insights and data from Structure Research analysts
Networking with C-level leaders from hyperscale, neocloud, real estate, energy, private equity, infrastructure and equipment vendors
Private meetings with buyers of digital infrastructure - compute capacity, cloud, interconnection, infrastructure hardware, software, services and more
Forward-looking panel discussions on AI workloads, infrastructure bottlenecks, edge AI and inference growth as well as cloud-to-ground strategies.
Structure Research built infra/STRUCTURE to replace legacy events and be the marquee annual setting where digital infrastructure executives can network, learn and get business done through private 1:1 meetings, roundtables, solution discovery in an intimate deal-making environment. All against the backdrop of independent third party research and data, along with perspectives from leading industry minds.
2026 THEME:
INTERLUDE
Interlude: an intervening or interruptive period, space or event.
202
The history of the Internet infrastructure sector has always been characterized by growth waves, propelled by technology innovation and operational efficiency, and accelerated by disruptive events (the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 global pandemic) that bring more urgency to the table, and over time, clarity and new insights. The sector has experienced two major waves - the transition to outsourced infrastructure and the rise of hyperscale cloud - that have pushed the sector forward on a consistent growth trajectory that has been exceedingly healthy and consistent, and even demonstrated counter-cyclical tendencies.
There is no question that hyperscale cloud has brought the sector to where it is today and the current growth wave is far from over. Hyperscale cloud is still developing in emerging markets around the world and the shift from traditional on-premise to outsourced off-premise infrastructure is still ongoing, even as it moves into its final stages. But while these waves continue to play out, the sector has approached yet another inflection point as AI looks to amplify what is happening with hyperscale, while laying the groundwork for something that is truly unprecedented. Instead of data centres, availability zones and interconnection, we are starting to talk about AI factories for training and inference locations and infrastructure. CPUs are making way for GPUs, while air cooling is now living alongside liquid cooling. And data centre infrastructure is not about bringing in power, but moving closer to where the power is. And in the middle of it all, neocloud is joining hyperscale cloud for GPU-based infrastructure service delivery.
Against this backdrop, there are a number of variables in motion. Resource constraints, supply chain challenges, growing capital requirements, financing complexity, new technologies, persistent legacy portfolios, geopolitics, forthcoming regulatory issues and infrastructure redesigns are all happening at once (2025 theme: concurrence), while being reconsidered (2024 theme: rethink), reevaluated and adjusted (2023 theme: recalibration) for the next-generation that is coming. And it is all happening at an accelerated pace (2022 theme: acceleration).
The sector is currently in a clear transitory period. Few will disagree that the next wave, driven by the rise of AI, is coming, and it is not a matter of if but when. We invite you to join us to explore and make sense of this time in between, the interlude between hyperscale cloud and AI, at infra / STRUCTURE 2026 in Las Vegas.
AI is reshaping the cloud infrastructure landscape and neoclouds are at the center of it.
Structure Research’s latest report maps the emerging AI infrastructure ecosystem and forecasts explosive neocloud growth from under $10B in 2025 to $186B by 2030 .

Why should attend?
The infrastructure services market lacks an industry event that is vendor-neutral and brings together, under one roof, all the key pieces – data center operators, developers, end users, suppliers and financiers – that are involved in the value chain. infra/STRUCTURE was built to create an environment where conversations happen, relationships are built and ultimately, deals are done – all against the backdrop of third party research and analysis with engaged discussion of the sector’s most pertinent issues and challenges. Today’s Internet infrastructure executive is busy. There is no better way to get multiple things done at one time and in one location.
Infra/STRUCTURE is not just another tech event — it's a deal-making environment. Here’s what makes it the best event for digital infrastructure professionals:
Meet Hyperscalers, neoclouds, data center investors and project developers in exclusive 1:1 sessions
Explore emerging markets for AI data center expansion
Learn how geopolitical tensions, regulatory changes and AI infrastructure demands are shaping strategies and timelines
Understand the impact of sustainability metrics on colocation growth and hyperscale leasing
Stay ahead with cloud interconnection strategies, AI edge deployments and so much more
Don’t miss your opportunity to be part of the next wave of digital infrastructure growth.
REGISTER NOW to secure access to buyers, partners, and insights that will define the future of the cloud and data center ecosystem.
