DCN Stockholm 2027
About the Event
DCN Stockholm 2027 is a full-day pan-Nordic digital infrastructure conference and exhibition organized by Data Center Nation in collaboration with the Swedish Datacenter Industry Association (SweDCI). Taking place on September 2, 2027 in Stockholm, Sweden, the summit brings together more than 750 data center decision-makers, over 85 industry speakers, and 25 thought-leadership sessions addressing capacity expansion, renewable energy integration, cooling innovation, and cross-border connectivity across the Nordic region.
The Nordic data center sector represents one of Europe's fastest-expanding infrastructure markets, with regional operational capacity projected to increase from 1.32 GW to 1.82 GW by 2031 and total market value forecast to surpass $14.9 billion by 2030 at a 12.8 percent compound annual growth rate. Supported by abundant hydropower, wind, and geothermal resources, competitive electricity rates, and land suitable for hyperscale campuses, Sweden serves as the largest installed market in the region and an entry point to the broader Nordic digital ecosystem.
Programming Focus
- Hyperscale and AI campus expansion: site selection, high-density cluster deployment, accelerated delivery cycles, and facility scaling across Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, and Iceland
- Renewable power and grid capacity: balancing hydro, wind, nuclear, and geothermal generation against tightening grid allocations and regional transmission limits
- Cooling architectures and thermal management: implementing liquid cooling, direct-to-chip systems, and heat reuse for high-density artificial intelligence compute
- Regional connectivity and digital sovereignty: subsea cable investments, terrestrial fiber routes between Europe and North America, and latency reduction
- Cross-border policy and sustainability mandates: aligning regulatory frameworks, sovereign cloud requirements, and net-zero benchmarks across the five Nordic nations
