Data Center Map for US, Texas and Austin.

Most conversations about our health tech ecosystem focus on founders, capital, and UT. Almost none focus on power and floor space — which is what clinical AI actually runs on.
A few lines from the map worth sitting with:
Tract has acquired 1,515 acres in Caldwell County for a 2GW park built for cloud, AI training, and inferencing.

Iron Mountain is developing a 500-acre, seven-building campus in Hutto with an on-site substation and closed-loop cooling, first buildings expected around 2030.

KDC's Project Comal in Taylor is 360MW across six buildings and two substations.

EdgeConneX is investing roughly $700 million into a single Cedar Creek facility.


Three things this changes for health innovation:
Proximity becomes a clinical asset. Imaging models, genomics pipelines, and ambient documentation all care about latency and where PHI physically lives. That infrastructure is now 25 miles from downtown.
The barrier to entry drops. A seed-stage digital health company can lease compute that used to require a hyperscaler contract.
Infrastructure is a health determinant. Grid load, water, and land use in Hutto, Taylor, and San Marcos are community health questions. If we build the compute layer for healthcare AI without asking what it costs the communities hosting it, we've solved one problem by creating another.
Austin didn't just become a health tech city. It became a place where the compute lives too.
What are we doing to make sure both sides of that equation serve patients?
