Data Center Asia Debuts in Hong Kong
Today marks a significant milestone in the data center industry as Data Center Asia (DCA) officially launched at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong. This event is poised to reshape the data center landscape across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. DCA is modeled after the successful Data Center World event in the United States, bringing invaluable global expertise while catering specifically to the unique needs of regional markets.
A Path to Connectivity
The inaugural event in Hong Kong serves as a gateway to Greater China and Northeast Asia, with plans to expand to Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur, thereby creating an interconnected platform to support the data ecosystem throughout Asia. With over 200 exhibitors from various countries—including China, Singapore, Japan, and the United States—DCA showcases a broad spectrum of technology solutions. The exhibits cover essential data center infrastructure elements such as power and cooling systems, modular designs, network gear, and security solutions alongside cloud and virtualization technologies. The event also highlights sustainability practices to address the growing environmental concerns within the industry.
Innovation Pavilion
A noteworthy addition to the exhibition is the MATRADE Pavilion, which features breakthrough digital innovations from Malaysia's leading tech firms. This collaboration underscores DCA's commitment to fostering innovation and strengthens regional ties across the APAC data center landscape.
Knowledge Exchange and Industry Insights
Beyond being a marketplace, DCA serves as a thought leadership platform consisting of five summits and forums throughout the three-day event. Participants will engage in sessions exploring twelve critical topics, including AI, cybersecurity, sustainability, and advancements in computing technologies. The curated discussions, led by more than 100 global experts and analysts, will provide data-driven insights to inform real-world decision-making.
AI Focus at DCA 2025
Among the highlights of DCA is the Omdia Analyst Summit, a prominent feature that delves into the future of AI in transforming data centers by 2030. The summit is expected to provide attendees with actionable insights on optimizing cooling systems through AI technology and its implications for energy consumption.
Sustainability Initiatives
DCA also prioritizes discussions on sustainability with a dedicated Sustainability Forum. Industry experts, including Pritesh Swamy from Cushman & Wakefield, will provide key insights into investment strategies that prioritize energy efficiency and ESG performance in data centers across the Asia Pacific region. Engagement with association leaders from Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines will provide a platform for sharing long-term design strategies tailored to the unique challenges and opportunities in Southeast Asia.
Specialized Knowledge Delivery
Throughout the event, DCA offers a variety of in-depth discussions designed to provide tailored knowledge and insights. The Deep Knowledge Summit, co-hosted with the Deep Knowledge Community, brings together industry leaders such as Yin Jianxiong and Zhang Peng to explore the intersection of AI and green technology in data center design.
The Cybersecurity Ecosystem Forum ensures that contemporary security issues are addressed, touching on topics such as data privacy and zero-trust security for the AI-generated landscape. Leaders like Judy Saw and Patrick Wong will lead discussions aimed at bolstering security protocols in the data center environment.
The Design and Operations Summit will cover essential facets from construction to operational management, including special sessions on building AI-ready data centers, featuring innovations in liquid cooling technologies from industry experts.
A Unique Gathering
DCA operates under the auspices of Build4Asia, a renowned platform for building electrical engineering and security solutions. This synthesis of events not only enriches the experience for attendees but also fosters valuable interactions among experts, contractors, and users across sectors. Through its comprehensive approach, DCA creates significant opportunities for high-value partnerships and knowledge dissemination in the data center sphere.
