The world is evolving rapidly, with digital infrastructure at its core. Beyond supporting technology, it shapes how we live, work, and connect—including driving AI advancements and linking global economies. However, this progress brings challenges too big for any single entity to solve alone. Tackling them demands urgency, innovation, and collective effort to build a sustainable and secure future for all.
That’s why we’re reimagining PTC conferences as a global platform for thought leadership. More than just industry events, PTC’s Annual Conferences in Hawai‘i and distinctive seminars such as PTC’DC, are gathering places where senior executives, government officials, academics, and innovators from around the world come together to address the challenges shaping the future of digital infrastructure development.
These aren’t just technical challenges. They’re global issues that impact every sector, every region, and every community. How do we scale infrastructure to meet the demands of AI-driven applications? How do we ensure that data centers and subsea networks align with global net-zero sustainability goals? What steps must we take to protect critical infrastructure from cybersecurity threats? And how do we close the digital divide to ensure that no one is left behind in the race toward a more connected future?
