With its strategic location, inherent natural resources and robust energy infrastructure, Northwest Ohio is uniquely positioned to capitalize on a generational opportunity in a new, technologically advanced growth sector. Because of these assets, this region has been identified as a leading location for data centers and other high-tech, advanced industries.
These data center opportunities offer incredible returns for our communities, including:

- Massive revenue generation
- Continuing attraction of white-collar tech companies and jobs
- Long-term construction employment
More than a dozen area institutions have already pledged their support for Northwest Ohio’s initiative to attract data centers to this region. And more are joining the movement every day.
