Lord It is preparing to live a radical transformation. Where today desert landscapes extend, tomorrow a Technological ecosystem among the most advanced in the world. The architect of this vision is Masayoshi Son, the founder of Softbank. His new plan, Project Crystal Landaims to give life to a research and production center specialized in Ai and robotics. His goal is to invest up to a thousand billion dollars to replicate the industrial model of Shenzhen in American territory, the Chinese city symbol of innovation and hi-tech development.
Arizona in the center of the industry of the future
However, the project is not limited to the construction of production plants only. The goal is to generate a completely integrated ecosystem, able to combine startups, semi -hounding and researchers giants in a single network. SoftBank has already started contacts with the Trump administration to obtain tax breaks, And we are talking about direct interviews with the secretary of commerce Howard Lutnick. At the same time, the company aims to involve giants such as TSMC and Samsung. Arizona could thus become the new point of reference for Industrial innovation.
To finance Crystal Land, SoftBank intends to adopt a gradual approach. Each component of the project will be supported by dedicated investment structuressimilar to those used for large public infrastructures. This strategy allows to reduce the necessary initial capital, distributing costs on multiple subjects and phases. Meanwhile, the Japanese giant continues to move on the market, liquidating part of its participation in T-Mobile US and planning operations with Openai and extensive computing.
But it is not just about economic resources. According to analysts like Melissa Otto, The real advantage will be SoftBank’s ability to create a system in which engineers can collaborate dell’IA, experts in robotics and world companies. Only in this way can you make such an ambitious project sustainable in the long term. Arizona, therefore, will no longer be only a point on the American map, but could become the center of the next technological revolution, guiding the development of the AI ​​towards new horizons.
