(CSi) Gov. Doug Burgum on Thursday delivered remarks during a ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday at the recently completed and operational Applied Blockchain Inc. data center near Jamestown on Highway 20. The Event was hosted by the Jamestown Area Chamber of Commerce.
Construction began in September 2021 on the data center, which consists of eight buildings and other infrastructure.
Burgum says high-performance data centers rely on the energy and climate of North Dakota, making it a prime location for future projects of this type.
Applied Blockchain Inc. and Bitmain contributed $50,000 to Two Rivers
Activity Center’s Building Community Campaign to construct pickleball, sand volleyball and bocce courts at Meidinger Splash Park.
The Court Complex includes six pickleball courts, three sand volleyball
courts, and two bocce courts. Applied Blockchain and Bitmain’s contribution was directed towards the pickleball complex of six courts.
“Applied and Bitmain are grateful to be a part of this community and honored to contribute to this activity center. Jamestown has been an important partner to our progress and we are happy to contribute back into the community” Wes Cummins, CEO, Applied Blockchain.
Meidinger Splash Park opened June 5, 2021 on the grounds of Two Rivers
Activity Center, which is owned and operated by the Jamestown Parks and
Recreation Department. The courts complex is anticipated to cost $225,000 with construction scheduled for the summer of 2022.
“Jamestown Parks and Recreation and Two Rivers Activity Center are gratefulto organizations like Applied Blockchain and Bitmain that prioritize
supporting needs in the communities they operate in. With each donation wereceive, we become that much closer to our goal. We thank Applied
Blockchain and Bitmain for making a difference in our community,” Amy
