KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Patmos is thrilled to announce that Nebius, a global provider of high-performance AI infrastructure, will be the first client in its Kansas City data center. This partnership marks a significant milestone for both companies as Nebius enters the North American market to bring its innovative AI-native cloud platform closer to American customers. Patmos’ Kansas City facility, designed as a cutting-edge AI innovation hub, will serve as a critical base for Nebius’ operations, enabling the company to deliver high-performance, scalable solutions to clients across the United States.
Nebius selected Patmos for its demonstrated agility and expertise in phased construction, delivering custom data center buildouts faster than the industry standard. The first phase of construction includes extensive infrastructure upgrades, such as backups, generators, and cage space, tailored to support Nebius’ demanding workload requirements.

This project aligns with Patmos' commitment to democratization and decentralization—allowing us to bypass traditional hyperscalers and partner with an AI-focused cloud newcomer. We're thrilled to work with trusted partners, bringing together local vendors and expertise to support the needs of a global company like Nebius. This collaboration feels like the perfect mix of innovation and community spirit, building something faster, stronger, and deeply rooted in the local area,” said Joe Morgan, Chief Infrastructure Officer at Patmos.
