OVERVIEW

Datacentre & Cloud Infrastructure (DCCI) Expo returns on 1 – 2 September 2026 at the JW Marriott Hotel Riyadh, at a time when Saudi Arabia stands at the forefront of a historic digital infrastructure transformation. The Kingdom’s datacentre market, currently valued at $2.11 billion is on track to almost double to $3.9 billion by 2030, powered by a strong 13.07% CAGR and an unprecedented surge in AI, cloud adoption, and sovereign data requirements.

Driven by Vision 2030’s digital-first mandate, Saudi Arabia is witnessing a massive capacity expansion. National IT load, is expected to jump from 0.41 GW to 1.03 GW by 2030, with hyperscalers accelerating large-scale campus developments. In parallel, the country is experiencing one of the region’s fastest-growing edge data revolutions, advancing at 21.9% CAGR to support low-latency AI, 5G, and real-time workloads.

With 82% of new builds meeting Tier IV standards, enterprise, BFSI, government and many other sectors are demanding unmatched resilience. Sustainability, too, is reshaping design priorities as Saudi Arabia’s cooling market is forecasted to skyrocket from $0.13 billion in 2025 to USD 0.67 billion by 2031.

Against this backdrop, DCCI 2026 emerges as the definitive platform for DC & Cloud providers, hyperscalers, policymakers, enterprises, and solution leaders aiming to shape, invest in, and accelerate the Kingdom’s next digital leap.
