On May 8, 2024 Microsoft announced $3.3 billion in cloud and AI infrastructure investment through the end of 2026. Its release identified Mount Pleasant as the campus location and also announced a manufacturing-focused AI lab and skills initiatives. The spending window and construction employment estimates were prospective commitments, not completed investment or measured employment. Reuters described the site’s connection to the earlier Foxconn development. The event and Reuters report are May 8; Microsoft’s page notes a May 10 editorial update to a partner’s name.
