Amazon to invest additional $21 billion in Spain for data centres and ...

Amazon's €33.7 billion investment aims to create nearly 30,000 jobs by 2035 and establish Spain as a key AI and cloud computing hub in Europe.

  • On March 2, 2026, Amazon said it will invest an additional 18 billion euros in Spain to expand data centres and boost AI innovation.
  • Building on an earlier Aragon plan, last year Amazon pledged 15.7 billion euros after a meeting with Pedro Sánchez and David Zapolsky, according to sources.
  • Amazon said the funding will support total commitments of 33.7 billion euros and almost 30,000 jobs until 2035, expanding data infrastructure and AI capabilities across Europe.
  • The company said `With this investment, we make Spain the AI epicentre of our operations in Europe,` while Aragón regional leaders hope its renewable energy can support generative artificial intelligence data centres.
  • In the wider industry context, analysts note the investment is small compared with the hundreds of billions planned by Amazon, Microsoft, Google and OpenAI amid the tech sovereignty debate.
