Intelligent Infrastructure

Building America's intelligence infrastructure.

The Enterprise Technology Association (ETA) fast-tracks the projects, partnerships and programs that power the next era of compute, drawing on cutting-edge science, technology and engineering.

Three ways we move

We compress the path from idea to operational capacity.

01

Fast-tracked projects

Data center siting, energy and grid coordination, and compute buildouts accelerated from concept to capacity.

02

Strategic partnerships

Public and private alignment across technology providers, utilities, capital and government, to reduce risk and scale infrastructure.

03

Enablement programs

Workforce, readiness and ecosystem programs that prepare the talent and institutions needed to run this infrastructure.

The bleeding edge, applied

More than steel and silicon.

  • Compute and data center development
  • Energy, grid and power infrastructure
  • Advanced networking and connectivity
  • Engineering, science and emerging tech
How it gets built

Capital, resources and the layer in between.

Funding and financing

Capital structured for what gets built.

Intelligence infrastructure is capital-intensive and long-horizon.

  • Project finance and capital stack design
  • Public, private and blended funding pathways
  • Sustainable development and long-term value
Responsible resource use

Land, energy and water, used wisely.

Compute does not exist apart from the communities and ecosystems that host it.

  • Responsible siting and land use
  • Clean and resilient energy sourcing
  • Water stewardship and cooling innovation
The intelligence layer

The physical and digital layer that propels America forward.

Intelligence infrastructure spans the physical (data centers, power, networks) and the digital (platforms, systems, software).

  • Physical compute, power and connectivity
  • Digital platforms, systems and software
  • Technology, business and national security advantage
Featured: public-private partnerships

Innovative partnerships where the stakes are highest.

The most important infrastructure sits at the intersection of public mission and private capability.

National defense and security

Compute, autonomy and secure infrastructure built with defense partners to keep capabilities ahead of threats.

Health and life sciences

AI-ready infrastructure and partnerships that accelerate research, diagnostics and care delivery while protecting data.

Critical infrastructure

Energy, manufacturing and the systems that keep the country running, modernized through public-private partnership.

Industries of the future

Enabling the industries of the future.

We bring the capital, compute and collaborators to enable advanced manufacturing, autonomous systems and the frontier sectors.

Smart, AI-driven production

Modern manufacturing runs on compute, automation and data. We connect operators with the infrastructure to bring production onshore.

Autonomous systems at scale

From airspace to edge compute, support for drone and UAV programs.

The frontier sectors

Robotics, space and the industries still taking shape need infrastructure-grade backing.

The resources to get it done

Ambition needs more than ideas. We assemble the capital, compute and collaborators for frontier opportunities.

Get started

Let's build it here.

If you are developing, financing or operating the infrastructure behind American intelligence, we want to move with you.

Workforce for the infrastructure, too.

ETA training and the National AI Accelerator prepare the people and organizations who run what gets built.
