CHEYENNE, WYO. — A Colorado company is looking at Cheyenne as a location for a data center that would provide 25 full-time jobs.
Denver-based Thought Equity Motion converts content, such as sports, news footage and movie clips, into a digital format and licenses it to different companies.
Thought Equity Motion already has a data center in Laramie that opened in 2005. The proposed Cheyenne data center would be an expansion of the Laramie operation.
On Monday, the Cheyenne City Council applied for a Wyoming Business Council grant of $2.2 million to assist the data center with the costs of electric power and broadband Internet.
Company CEO Kevin Schaff tells the Wyoming Tribune Eagle that the grant is an incentive to build the data center in Cheyenne.
