At home in the Buckeye State, our data center communities in New Albany, Lancaster, and Columbus are hubs of digital transformation for the Midwest. We enjoy providing hundreds of opportunities for our neighbors with full-time and contractor roles as well as investing in the initiatives that matter most. We see a long-term future in Ohio as we grow together.
