Multi-strategy investment firm NorthMark Strategies plans to establish operations in Spartanburg, South Carolina. The $2.8 billion project is expected to create 28 jobs.

The investment will include the construction of a high-performance computing center, located at 4000 S. Pine Street, designed to support a portfolio of businesses in the engineering and technology sectors. Operations are scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2026.

"Of the more than 100 locations across the country we considered, Spartanburg stood out for its strong community, skilled workforce, dynamic economy and strategic advantages. Our investment in this high-performance computing center solidifies our commitment to building for future growth and being prepared to meet the growing demand for HPC capabilities among our current and future investment partners head-on, NorthMark Strategies President Jen Byrne said.

“With NorthMark Strategies establishing operations in Spartanburg County, South Carolina continues to add to its already impressive technology industry. We celebrate this remarkable investment in the Upstate and all it will mean for our state and our people. Congratulations to NorthMark and Spartanburg County on this announcement and the opportunities it will bring,” noted Secretary of Commerce Harry M. Lightsey III.

NorthMark provides strategic advice, asset management and value-added services to privately owned companies globally.

“We are thrilled to welcome NorthMark Strategies to Spartanburg and look forward to the opportunities this project will bring to our community. Spartanburg will greatly benefit from this highly unique and dynamic investment for years to come. What makes this project even more exciting is that it comes at zero cost to taxpayers and places little to no demand on our existing infrastructure,” Spartanburg County Council Vice Chairman and Economic Development Committee Chairman David Britt added.
