Southern Virginia
Microsoft operates a datacenter in Boydton. The area is also home to the Microsoft TechSpark Southern Virginia region. Our community development work supports projects in the Virginia counties of Halifax, Charlotte, Lunenburg, Brunswick, and Mecklenburg.
Aligned with Microsoft’s global commitments, our Datacenter Community Pledge is to build and operate digital infrastructure that addresses community challenges and creates local benefits where we operate and where our employees live and work.
