To Explore Asia-Pacific’s digital Infrastructure Future

2,000 industry leaders from 75 countries will gather in Singapore this December as AI demand reshapes connectivity, data centre capacity, power requirements and infrastructure investment across Asia-Pacific.

Asia-Pacific's accelerating demand for AI infrastructure will take centre stage in Singapore this December as ITW Asia and Datacloud Asia bring together leaders from across connectivity, data centres, cloud, energy and investment.

Taking place from 1–3 December 2026 at Shangri-La Singapore, the co-located events provide a meeting point for the organisations building, funding and connecting the next generation of digital infrastructure across the region.

AI demand puts infrastructure delivery in the spotlight

The rapid expansion of AI and cloud services is reshaping Asia-Pacific’s infrastructure landscape. Growing demand for computing capacity is driving new data centre development while increasing requirements for high-capacity cross-border connectivity and changing network traffic patterns.

But rising demand is only part of the equation. Power availability, permitting, construction and supply chains are increasingly influencing where investment is directed and how quickly individual markets can scale.

At the same time, infrastructure growth is moving beyond established hubs and into markets including Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and India, each presenting different opportunities and challenges around regulation, energy access and market readiness.

Connectivity, compute, power and capital converge

Against this backdrop, ITW Asia 2026 will explore how AI is transforming network architecture, interconnection strategies and carrier business models. Sessions will explore how investment, cross-border connectivity and strategic partnerships can accelerate the development of scalable, resilient infrastructure.

Datacloud Asia 2026 will focus on the practical realities of scaling digital infrastructure, with discussions covering power access, capacity delivery and attracting new forms of investment. The programme will also explore how operators and investors can meet increasingly demand from an increasingly diverse ecosystem of hyperscalers, neoclouds, sovereign AI initiatives and enterprise customers.

Both events will feature leadership summits and interactive discussions designed to connect senior decision-makers, address shared challenges and identify new partnership opportunities.

Together, ITW Asia and Datacloud Asia will provide a comprehensive view of how connectivity, compute, power and capital are converging to build Asia’s AI economy.
