Boom Supersonic to build $150 million Colorado factory for AI power

Original: Boom Supersonic, the American startup developing the 'Son of Concorde,' is building a $150 million factory in Colorado not for supersonic jets but for turning its jet engines to power turbines for AI datacenters and bankroll the worlds fastest airliner

Boom Supersonic, the American startup behind a planned 'Son of Concorde' airliner, is building a $150 million factory in Colorado. Rather than producing supersonic jets there, the company will convert its jet engines into turbines to generate power for AI datacenters, using that revenue stream to help fund development of what it aims to make the world's fastest passenger aircraft.

Why now: The unusual pivot of an aviation startup into powering AI datacenters highlights how the AI boom is reshaping energy demands and startup strategy.
