MND Deep Dive: Querétaro’s data center boom

On this week’s edition of the Mexico News Daily Deep Dive podcast, we look at the factors driving investment in a slew of new, state-of-the-art data centers in the central state of Querétaro.

With natural resources in the area at such a premium, how are these giant data centers solving their demands for water? Will the construction of these new tech hubs help local communities, or harm them? What can we expect in the Querétaro region in the near future? We also take a look at why Querétaro is the ideal place for data centers and what exactly it is that attracts global corporations to this area of Mexico.
