Huge Investment: Amazon Web Services to Build Data Centers in Mississippi

During the second special session of the Mississippi Legislature, lawmakers passed three bills that outline a $259 million incentive package for Amazon Web Services’ $10 billion project. The project involves the construction of two new hyperscale data centers in Canton and Madison County. Once open, the centers will create 1,000 high-tech, high-paying jobs for Mississippians. Governor Tate Reeves applauded the development, stating that it is a great victory for the state and will place Mississippi at the forefront of innovation.
