Today, we announced that we’re breaking ground on our 26th U.S. Meta data center in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin! Meta data centers are making a positive impact on local communities, including investing in local schools and nonprofits, partnering on local water restoration projects, new clean and renewable energy projects, and supporting local jobs to build and operate the data center.

We're building the future of human connection and once operational, the Beaver Dam Data Center will be optimized for our AI workloads, giving people new ways to connect, find communities and grow their businesses.
