Nexus Data Centers in advanced talks to secure $15B for Google-backed Anthropic data center
Summary
Nexus Data Centers is in advanced negotiations to secure $15 billion in funding from Morgan Stanley to build a large AI data center campus in Texas for Anthropic, a company that develops AI models. Google has agreed to back Anthropic's creditworthiness (investment-grade credit rating, which means Google vouches that Anthropic is financially reliable enough to repay loans) as part of the deal, and this is one of several infrastructure partnerships Anthropic has made recently to expand its computing capacity.
