Foreign Investment Surge in the USA .. DAMAC to Fund $20 Billion in U.S. Data Centers

Foreign Investment Surge in the USA .. DAMAC to Fund $20 Billion in U.S. Data Centers
 

President-elect Donald Trump unveiled a $20 billion foreign investment initiative aimed at constructing new data centers across the United States. This significant pledge comes from Emirati billionaire Hussain Sajwani, a close Trump associate and founder of the Dubai-based property development firm, DAMAC Properties.

Speaking from his Florida residence, Mar-a-Lago, Trump emphasized the potential scale of the investment. “They may go double, or even somewhat more than double, that amount of money,” Trump stated, signaling the ambitious scope of the project.

 

First Phase of Expansion

The “first phase” of the data center expansion will target Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, and Indiana. These states, strategically selected, stand to benefit economically from job creation and infrastructure development.

Hussain Sajwani attributed his decision to Trump’s recent electoral victory. “It’s been amazing news for me and my family when [Trump] was elected in November. We’ve been waiting four years to increase our investment in [the] U.S. to very large amounts of money,” Sajwani remarked during his brief speech at the Mar-a-Lago event.

 

Impact of Trump’s Election

Sajwani’s pledge highlights a growing trend of foreign business leaders committing sizable investments to the U.S. following Trump’s win over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. This announcement echoes a similar development in December when SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son revealed a $100 billion U.S. investment plan, promising to create 100,000 jobs over Trump’s four-year term.

Trump has positioned himself as a pro-business leader, actively encouraging foreign entities to invest in the U.S. economy. As part of his strategy, he has offered incentives such as expedited permits for companies pledging $1 billion or more.

 

A Boost for the U.S. Economy

This $20 billion investment represents a significant boost to the U.S. economy, particularly in the growing tech and data center industry. By attracting foreign capital, Trump aims to solidify the U.S. as a global leader in technology infrastructure while simultaneously creating job opportunities in key states.

As Trump prepares to assume office on January 20, this announcement underscores his commitment to fostering economic growth and strengthening international business ties. Sajwani’s pledge may pave the way for further investments, reinforcing confidence in the U.S. as a prime destination for global capital.
