Today, we officially cut the ribbon on the new Airsys Global Headquarters in Woodruff, South Carolina. This 60-acre campus is more than just a new home — it's the strategic heart of our mission to cool the AI revolution. By centering our manufacturing and corporate leadership here in the Upstate, we're doubling down on our commitment to the "physical layer" of digital infrastructure. Why this matters: 🚀 Scaling for AI: Purpose-built to meet the surging global demand for high-density thermal management. 💧 Efficiency First: A hub for zero-water cooling technologies that prioritize Power Compute Effectiveness (PCE). 🛠️ U.S. Manufacturing: A $60 million investment strengthening supply chain resilience and creating 215 new jobs in South Carolina. 🌐 Global Reach: Serving as the central engine for our 1,000+ employees and 16 locations worldwide. From air and liquid to hybrid architectures, the future of thermal management starts here. Thank you to general contractors Choate Construction Company, architect LS3P ASSOCIATES LTD., and our partners at OneSpartanburg, Inc. City of Woodruff, SPARTANBURG COUNTY, South Carolina Manufacturers and Commerce, and so many others, for helping us signal this new era. The digital economy is built on infrastructure.

𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗮! Last month, we broke ground on yet another expansion of our Aiken campus in South Carolina! Continuing with our growth plan, we will soon see a new 60,000 sq ft. high-tech machining center emerge where there is currently a blank slate of land.   With this latest addition, we are bringing crankcase machining for our 𝙢𝙩𝙪 Series 4000 engines to the U.S. for the first time. Beginning next year, we’ll be able to significantly reduce finished crankcase imports, even as we ramp up production to serve the rapidly growing U.S. data center market.  • $75M investment  • 60 new jobs   It’s not just a sign of growth, it’s a sign of pride and commitment to building local-for-local, investing in people, products and capabilities that secure critical infrastructure.

Where architecture meets motion and performance🏁🏎️✨ The 23XI Headquarters, Airspeed, was envisioned as more than a race shop, it’s an architectural expression of speed, precision, innovation, and team identity. Every exterior element was thoughtfully designed to reinforce movement and performance, from the angled glazing and dynamic panel reveals to the illuminated upper shroud inspired by the energy of the track 🏎️💨 The fully glazed signature entry volume puts the team’s race-winning cars on display, while custom textures, materials, and graphic integrations reference the legacy and branding of 23XI and co-owner Michael Jordan 🏀 Built with tilt-up concrete construction, the project pushes the boundaries of what industrial architecture can be - blending efficiency, technology, storytelling, and experience into one cohesive design 🏗️ A building designed not just to function, but to inspire employees, fans, and the future of motorsports ✨ This building was recognized with an Excellence in Achievement Design Award from the Tilt-Up Concrete Association 2025.

RISE recently celebrated a major construction milestone for Mountaineer Ridge at Appalachian State University. Alongside partners including Choate Construction Company and Niles Bolton Associates, the RISE team traveled to Boone, NC, on April 28 to recognize the “Dry-In” of this new 852-bed residence hall, which is set to deliver to campus for the Fall 2027 semester. The Dry-In ceremony was also an opportunity for RISE and its partners to recognize and celebrate the efforts of the construction crew and subcontractors who are bringing this project to life. The event included lunch, raffle prizes, and commemorative shirts for the team. RISE’s Senior Vice President of Development, Jeremy Doss, delivered remarks thanking our partners, workers, and university administration for their dedication. Mountaineer Ridge represents the fourth phase of RISE’s transformational on-campus public-private partnership (P3) development at Appalachian State University. Scheduled to open for the Fall 2027 semester, the 852-bed community encompasses 384,269 square feet on a 14-acre site strategically located adjacent to App State’s new Track & Field Facility, Softball Stadium, and Indoor Tennis Facility. Including Mountaineer Ridge, RISE will have delivered 3,155 student beds across four phases to the Boone campus. Phases I-III delivered on-budget and on-time, and included core campus residence hall replacements and new builds totaling 2,303 beds and a 477-space parking deck. Mountaineer Ridge complements the previously delivered residence halls: Thunder Hill and Raven Rocks Halls (912 beds delivered for Fall 2020), Laurel Creek Hall (638 beds delivered for Fall 2021), and New River Hall (753 beds delivered for Fall 2022). With over 1.1M SF of housing delivered to campus through this Public-Private Partnership, RISE is proud to be a leader in transformational campus developments. Through our partnerships, collaboration, and industry expertise, RISE has forged relationships of trust with partner universities that extend far beyond the initial phases of projects.
