The Big Picture
The 5th Infraday Mountain States 2026
June 2-3 | Denver, CO
Real conversations. Real decisions. Real infrastructure.
The Mountain West is one of the fastest-growing regions in the country and its infrastructure systems are under pressure.
Population growth, electrification, industrial expansion, and data center demand are reshaping how transportation, water, energy, and digital infrastructure are planned and delivered. At the same time, agencies and private partners are being forced to make decisions in a constrained environment with limited funding, workforce challenges, and aging systems.
Infraday Mountain States is where those decisions get discussed.
Why Attend
This is not a theoretical conference.
Infraday brings together the public owners, utilities, cities, and private-sector leaders responsible for actually delivering infrastructure across the Mountain West and focuses on how projects are getting done today.
