The forum will provide a space for education and conversations on data center development in our region.

The event will feature expert speakers from Great River Energy, the Freshwater Society, Blue Earth Light and Water, Clean Up our River Environment Minnesota, Dunham Associates, and more. The event will be structured in two 1.5 hour panel presentations and conversations as an introduction to almost everything data center related. Elected officials, economic development professionals, utility staff, city attorneys, and community members are encouraged to attend.
