Meta to Invest $600 Billion in U.S. AI Infrastructure and Data Centers
Meta Platforms will invest $600 billion in U.S. infrastructure and jobs over the next three years, focusing on artificial intelligence data centers and computing capacity, according to a company announcement.
The company said the commitment will support AI technology, infrastructure, and workforce expansion through 2028. CEO Mark Zuckerberg told U.S. President Donald Trump that Meta will invest "at least $600 billion" in the U.S. over the next several years. The investments include the construction of several large AI data centers and other projects to meet growing compute needs.
Meta recently secured a $27 billion financing deal with Blue Owl Capital for its Louisiana data center, its largest project globally, and began work on a $1.5 billion facility in Texas, its 29th data center worldwide. The company has forecast higher capital expenditures next year as it accelerates AI-related infrastructure development.
In its announcement, Meta said the investments will also contribute to local economic growth, supporting jobs and municipal infrastructure in communities hosting its data centers.
