DICE South 2026 is a leading industry conference focused on the rapid growth of data center and digital infrastructure development across Texas and the broader Southern U.S., particularly in response to increasing demand driven by artificial intelligence and high-density computing. The program brings together developers, investors, utilities, and technology providers to discuss site selection, power availability, financing, construction strategies, and operational innovations shaping the next generation of AI-ready data center campuses.
Greenberg Traurig is a sponsor of the event and GT Shareholder Shawn Ronda will be moderating the panel "Keynote panel: Southern Data Center Playbook: How Texas and Its Neighbors Are Redefining the Map" on August 12, from 1:10 pm - 1:55 pm CT. This panel will examine how Texas and the broader Southern region have emerged as a first-tier global data center market, highlighting how differences in power availability, land, and connectivity are shaping development strategies across key submarkets such as Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio. Panelists will discuss recent deals, investment trends, and evolving customer demand to help stakeholders understand where growth opportunities are emerging and how to position for the next phase of data center expansion in the region.
