Jan 26, 2024 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

Meta recently revealed its plans to build a new data center campus in Jeffersonville, located on the southern border of Indiana along the Ohio River. The company will invest  $800 million to develop a facility spanning almost 700,000 square feet on the 619-acre site.

Brad Davis, director of data center community and economic development at Meta said, “We are thrilled to make Indiana and Jeffersonville our new home. We are committed to playing a positive role here and investing in the community's long-term vitality. Jeffersonville stood out as an outstanding location for our newest data center thanks to its great access to infrastructure, deep pool of talent, and amazing community partners. Thank you to everyone who has helped us get here.”

Indiana state governor Eric Holcomb commented, “Today is a great day for Indiana and for our southeast region as we welcome another major investment to the River Ridge Commerce Center. Indiana’s efforts to cultivate industries of the future are already paying dividends for Hoosiers, attracting growth in critical sectors like data storage, semiconductors, energy and electric vehicles. We’re excited to welcome Meta to Indiana and look forward to the company’s partnership in growing Jeffersonville and the southeast Indiana region.”
