Biden to Unveil $3.3 Billion Microsoft AI Center in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin on Wednesday
May 8, 2024, 11:51 AM
President Joe Biden is set to announce on Wednesday a significant $3.3 billion investment by Microsoft in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, for the construction of a new artificial intelligence data center on previously-owned Foxconn land. This strategic move not only aims to bolster technological advancements but also to create thousands of jobs in the region. The location chosen for the Microsoft facility is notably the same site where a previously hyped $10 billion Foxconn project failed to materialize under the Trump administration. Biden's visit to Wisconsin, a key battleground state, underscores the political significance of the investment, as he also plans to engage with local voters and draw a stark contrast to the unsuccessful Foxconn initiative.
