Norwegian Data Center Conference / NDCC
September 21-22 we welcome you to a two day conference and dinner at Scandic Fornebu. This is the first of what will become a yearly flagship data center conference in Oslo. The conference will span two days and bring together industry, government and the wider ecosystem.
Day one will be a high-level conference focused on geopolitics, Norwegian policy, artificial intelligence, power generation, grid infrastructure, the energy system, and the intersection of nature and climate. The programme will address how these factors shape the framework for industrial development and long-term competitiveness. Day two is dedicated to the supplier industry. We will gather operators and suppliers for pitches, presentations and panel discussions, building on the successful format of last year's supplier day.
Exhibition space. We will offer 20-25 exhibition spaces at the hotel. Companies interested in securing a stand are invited to contact ina@datasenterindustrien.no for further information.

Webinar: Building tomorrow's data centers starts with the people
The webinar is about how the data center industry can attract, develop and reskill the competence needed to build and operate the data centers of the future.
We want to focus above all on the opportunities: where competence is needed, which experience from other industries can be brought along, which routes lead into the industry, and what employers themselves need to do to make those routes clearer.
Three messages we want the audience to take with them
- Data centers are a whole industry: roles and competence needs across the entire life cycle, from construction and operations to IT, critical facilities, networks, service, maintenance, HSE and support.
- Many do not start from zero: competence from energy, oil and gas, industry and telecom can be directly relevant.
- The way in must become clear: education, the industry and employers need to get better at showing which roles exist and which paths lead in.

Talent Day 2026
Talent Day 2026 is the annual career event organized by Forces DC and NDI for the Norwegian data center industry, running this year on 24 September at Construction City Oslo as part of Nordic Data Center Week.
The event puts 200+ students, engineers and career-changers in the same room as the companies hiring them, for a full day of panels, career stories and direct conversations. It's become one of the few places where that actually happens.
Norway has more than 100 BNOK in planned data center investments. The industry will need the people to build and run it all, and Talent Day is where that gap starts to close.
- Real career stories
- Direct access to employers
- Practical sessions on how to get in, whether you are finishing a degree, moving from oil and gas, or just wondering if this sector is for you
Meet 200+ students, engineers and career switchers actively looking for their next move in the sector. If your company is hiring, this is a direct line to talent: no recruiter filter, no CV files. Free for participants, seats limited.
Webinar: Can data centers be good grid citizens?
Data centers are at the heart of digitalization, AI innovation, and economic growth. As demand for computing power continues to rise, so does the discussion around their impact on power systems, grid capacity, and local communities. But what if data centers could contribute to the electricity system rather than simply consume power?
As part of Nordic Data Center Week, Eaton invites you to a 30-minute webinar exploring how modern data centers can play a more active role in supporting a resilient, efficient, and sustainable energy future. In this webinar, we'll discuss how data centers can evolve from being large energy consumers to becoming active contributors to grid resilience, renewable integration, and a more sustainable energy future.
The session will conclude with a live chat, giving you the opportunity to engage directly with our experts, ask questions and share your perspectives. Whether you work in the data center industry, the energy sector, policymaking, or simply have an interest in the future of digital infrastructure and sustainable energy systems, we encourage you to join the conversation.
