American Express Selects Greensboro, NC for New Data Center Facility

The Greensboro Economic Development Alliance (GEDA) announced that American Express, a diversified global financial services company, selected Greensboro for a new data center after conducting a comprehensive nationwide search.  The company declined to release projected investment or employment, however, at the conclusion of their competitive search, the project team determined Greensboro offers the optimal location for the company.

“The decision by American Express validates that the Greensboro area is the ideal location for large-scale, complex data centers,” comments Dan Lynch, President of GEDA.  “Greensboro is fortunate to have Duke Energy providing highly reliable dual-feed capacity and low-cost electrical service, and network/communications providers with advanced telecommunications infrastructure in place.”  In addition, Greensboro enjoys a mild climate and very low risk for natural disasters.
