The Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Partnership (AIP), a consortium led by BlackRock’s GIP and including Nvidia, Microsoft, and Elon Musk’s xAI, is set to acquire Aligned Data Centers from Macquarie Asset Management for a record-breaking $40 billion.

The purchase gives AIP control over over 5 gigawatts of operational and planned AI-ready data center capacity across the Americas, along with proprietary cooling technology designed for high-density AI workloads. The deal, expected to close in the first half of 2026, marks the consortium’s first major investment and positions it at the forefront of AI infrastructure expansion.
