CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Microsoft is investing at least $1 billion in Catawba County by building four data centers there, local officials announced Wednesday.
The data centers will be in Conover, Hickory and Maiden, and the project will create at least 50 jobs, according to officials. Microsoft will develop the sites over the next 10 years.
County and municipal leaders met Wednesday afternoon to discuss taxpayer incentives for the project.
