New campus to bring AI-ready data center capacity, long-term jobs and infrastructure investment to Georgia
TORONTO, September 3, 2026 – Launch Capital ("Launch") today announced that Liberty Data Centers ("Liberty"), a Launch portfolio company, has acquired approximately 103 acres in Georgia, USA, where it plans to build a data center complex with up to 400 MW of capacity. The site is zoned industrial and sits next to an existing utility corridor, with roughly 70 to 80 acres buildable.
The campus is designed in phased 100 MW pods and will include technology buildings for AI, high-performance computing and enterprise compute, along with an on-site substation and switchyard sized for 400 MW. Natural gas or diesel generation will provide backup power. The site is ready for future expansion as demand grows. An on-site innovation and tech center will serve as a hub for technology, workforce development and collaboration, supported by operations and logistics facilities.
"AI is putting enormous demand on the digital infrastructure that modern life depends on, and powered, properly zoned land is the scarcest input," said Tony Di Benedetto, Chair of Liberty Data Centers. "This campus gives us a site built to scale, and we intend to build it responsibly, as a good neighbour in the local community."
Liberty says the campus is designed for efficiency and responsible environmental stewardship. It will use efficient systems that conserve and reuse water, advanced sound attenuation to minimize noise, and engineered systems to reduce vibration. Liberty expects the project to create hundreds of long-term jobs, including operations, electrical and facilities technicians, engineers, IT support, security and administrative roles, along with construction and maintenance work. It also expects the project to bring local investment, a stronger tax base and upgraded roads, power, utilities and digital connectivity.
Launch Capital is committed to assembling additional data center infrastructure assets consistent with its AI infrastructure build-out theme.
Liberty Data Centers is developing a 400 MW data center campus in Georgia, USA. More information is available at www.libertydatacenters.com.
