Microsoft will boost AI in Spain
The company will invest 1.95 billion euros in this effort during the years 2024 and 2025
Microsoft has ambitious plans to boost the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Spain. According to Brad Smith, president of Microsoft, the company will invest 1.95 billion euros in this effort during the years 2024 and 2025.
The announcement was made during a meeting with the head of the Spanish government, Pedro Sánchez. The investment aims to promote digital innovation and the responsible use of AI.
This figure represents Microsoft’s largest investment in Spain since the company established its presence in the country 37 years ago. In addition, it exceeds by four times the amount that the US technology has previously allocated to the Artificial Intelligence and Cloud (cloud) infrastructure in Spain.
Among Microsoft’s plans is the opening of a Cloud Region of Data Centers in the Community of Madrid. In addition, the company intends to build a Data Center Campus in Aragon, which will offer services to European companies and public entities.
These two infrastructures, partly financed by the €1.9 billion, will allow Microsoft to provide cloud services and offer Artificial Intelligence solutions to companies and public administrations in Spain and Europe.
