Google broke ground on its newest data center in Henderson Monday. The new data center facility represents a $600 million investment in Nevada's internet infrastructure. 

A newly announced Google Cloud region will also better serve customers in the Western U.S. 

The tech company also kicked off a $1 million Google.org Impact Challenge Nevada and called on nonprofits statewide to submit their best ideas to create economic opportunities for their community. 

Google announced its acquisition of a site in Henderson in 2018. Earlier this year, Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, said that the company will make over $13 billion in investments throughout 2019 in data centers and offices across the U.S., with major expansions in 14 states.
