Argentina Data Center Market – Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunities 2026-2031

ARGENTINA DATA CENTER MARKET ANALYSIS

The Argentina data center market size was valued at USD 334 million in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 825 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 16.27% during the forecast period. The data center sector in Argentina has experienced steady growth in recent years, propelled by digital transformation, increasing demand for cloud services, and the rise of e-commerce, fintech, and various digital services.

However, despite its historical significance in regional technological advancement, Argentina has experienced a decline in investment in data center infrastructure lately. Several factors contribute to this issue, including economic instability, the lack of consistent policies aimed at attracting tech investments, such as the setup of data centers in free trade zones (FTZs) and special economic zones (SEZs), and the absence of targeted tax incentives.

Argentina is expanding its AI workloads, and to support this growth, the Stargate initiative has proposed a large-scale data center project in the country. Stargate Argentina is a proposed hyperscale data-center campus in Patagonia backed by OpenAI and Sur Energy, with an estimated investment of $25 billion and up to 500 MW of compute-grade power capacity. It aims to provide the high-power, low-latency infrastructure needed for large AI training and inference workloads.

ARGENTINA DATA CENTER MARKET - KEY HIGHLIGHTS

1. Argentina has about 23 operational colocation data centers. Most colocation data centers are being developed according to Tier III standards.
2. Buenos Aires remains the primary data center hub in Argentina, accounting for the largest concentration of operational facilities. The city at present hosts around 18 active data centers and 2 upcoming data centers.
3. The cost of building data centers in Argentina is relatively competitive, averaging $7–$8 million per MW.
4. Most colocation data center operators in Argentina are developing retail or hybrid colocation facilities due to a shortage of large enterprise clients requiring full-scale wholesale data centers. In addition, hybrid models allow operators to optimize space utilization and better serve diverse customer needs in a market progressing in cloud and AI adoption.
