A group of banks is negotiating a $15 billion bridge loan for developer Nexus Data Centers.

The financing supports the construction of a large-scale AI data center campus in Hubbard, Texas.

Artificial intelligence firm Anthropic will lease the facility to secure over one gigawatt of dedicated computing power.

Google is providing financial guarantees and construction financing for the project.

The deal marks Anthropic's strategic shift from cloud provider reliance to direct infrastructure leasing.
