Fermi America Raises $682M for Texas AI Power-and-Data Campus
📅 - In its Nasdaq debut, Fermi America, a recently public developer of power-intensive digital infrastructure, collected about $682.5 million and unveiled an exceptionally ambitious plan: construct an 11-gigawatt energy-and-data campus in Amarillo, Texas, that is privately powered, to support the upcoming AI computer generation.
With little income and years of building ahead, the company, listed as FRMI, priced its initial public offering (IPO) at $21 per share and soared on the first day, suggesting a multibillion-dollar valuation. The proposal is based on a straightforward idea that has started to gain traction on Wall Street: since the demand for AI is growing faster than grid capacity, [...][...

📅 - 123NET Grows Southfield Data Center for AI Deployments - The enhancements include a significant 4-megawatt power extension, making it the only facility in Michigan to combine free on-site peering with high-density GPU power with liquid and air-cooled infrastructure. This allows for latency-sensitive applications and reduces network expenses by up to 70%. Businesses can implement massive GPU infrastructure for real-time AI applications and machine learning at scale thanks to data center optimization.
The data center's on-premises Detroit Internet transmission (DET-iX) switching fabric, which offers direct peering and fewer network hops for quicker data transmission, is a significant distinction.
According to Dan Irvin, founder and CEO of [...]
📅 - Nokia Expands AI Orchestration Tools with HPE RIC Licensing Deal - Nokia has taken a new step to strengthen its position in network automation by entering into a global licensing agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). The deal will see Nokia acquire rights to HPE's RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC) technology and integrate it with its own MantaRay Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) platform, which is designed to drive AI-powered automation in radio access networks.
As part of the agreement, effective October 1, 2025, much of the HPE development team working on RIC has transferred to Nokia's Mobile Networks unit. This provides Nokia not only with intellectual property but also with technical expertise to accelerate product development. [...]
