Meta’s Investment in AI Infrastructure

Meta has unveiled plans to bring approximately 1 GW of compute capacity online in 2025. In a Facebook post, CEO Mark Zuckerberg revealed that the company plans to invest USD 60-65 billion in capital expenditure this year, primarily on data centres, and grow its AI teams “significantly.”

In October 2024, Meta said it raised its annual spending forecast to USD 38-40 billion, up from the previous range of USD 37-40 billion projected in July 2024. At that time, the company highlighted a “significant acceleration” in infrastructure expenses for the following year, driven by expanded investments in servers, data centres, and network infrastructure.
