- The announcement location is adjacent to an existing Amazon Web Services data center campus.

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves has announced there will be major economic development news on Thursday.
The announcement is expected to be located at 1218 West County Line Road in Ridgeland, which is adjacent to one location where Amazon Web Services is already investing $10 billion for a data center campus.
Amazon has not confirmed it is building another campus. Amazon was the first to announce a data center project in Mississippi in January 2024 with its Madison County campus, which set an economic development record for the Magnolia State.
