Great night at the 7x24 Exchange Empire State Chapter event in Poughkeepsie in March 2026.
The
room was packed with leaders from across the data center and critical
infrastructure community—operators, engineers, vendors, and partners all
coming together to share ideas and strengthen our industry.
One
of the most meaningful moments of the evening was supporting the next
generation of talent entering the data center workforce from trade
schools.
The chapter was proud to present two $10,000 donations to: Lincoln Tech and Dutchess BOCES.
These
programs are helping build the skilled workforce our industry depends
on, and it was great to see the community rally around that mission.
A
big thank you to our speakers for the insightful discussions on trade
school workforce development and thermal energy storage, and to Clancy Data Center Services for sponsoring the evening.
