FIREBIRD BUILDS 300MW DATA CENTER IN ARMENIA

The 300MW facility represents a significant infrastructure investment in the South Caucasus region. Firebird's plan capitalizes on Armenia's historical role as a Soviet-era tech hub during the Cold War. The project requires approval for high-end Nvidia chip exports, which typically face US restrictions. Sources indicate the incoming Trump administration committed to facilitating these approvals, suggesting AI infrastructure development in Armenia aligns with broader geopolitical considerations. Armenia has increasingly positioned itself as a potential regional technology hub. The data center would support AI computing workloads and could attract international cloud and AI companies seeking diversified infrastructure locations outside traditional Western data center markets. The 2027 completion timeline suggests multi-year construction and equipment deployment. The scale of the facility—70,000+ enterprise-grade chips—would rank it among globally significant AI computing infrastructure projects.
