BorderPlex Digital Assets Plans Santa Teresa, New Mexico, Operations

03/02/2025
BorderPlex Digital Assets plans to establish operations in Santa Teresa, New Mexico. The approximately $5 billion project is expected to create 1,000 jobs.

The Digital Infrastructure Campus will combine advanced manufacturing, data centers, utility and microgrid power generation, water treatment, industrial cooling, fiber, and computing infrastructure, targeting data-heavy technology companies and trade-centric businesses. Construction is scheduled to begin this year.

“We firmly believe that the next wave of frontier tech belongs on the American frontier,” said Lanham Napier, Chairman of BorderPlex Digital Assets. “We’re thrilled to partner with Governor Lujan Grisham to build a Digital Infrastructure Campus in Santa Teresa.”

BorderPlex Digital is in discussions with state and local governments about other statutory incentives, including the High Wage Jobs Tax Credit, LEDA GRT Share, Industrial Revenue Bonds with Doña Ana County, and workforce training through the Job Training Incentive Program.

“The BorderPlex Digital Infrastructure Campus will have a ripple effect across Southern New Mexico and the border region, boosting employment, driving new investment, supporting local businesses, and growing the region’s tax base,” noted New Mexico Economic Development Department Secretary-Designate Rob Black.

By combining traditional data centers, AI-specific data centers, and advanced manufacturing facilities on a single campus, BorderPlex Digital Assets is able to accelerate deployment, reduce risk, and provide an efficient product that can scale.

“The BorderPlex Digital Infrastructure Campus is a game-changer for Santa Teresa,” added Davin Lopez, President & CEO of MVEDA. “Investment in critical infrastructure, new job opportunities, and solutions for clean water and reliable power have been at the top of our list for years. It’s precisely the type of development we’ve been working to attract – one that leverages innovation to strengthen our position as a key player in global trade.”
