Apple will invest at least $1.3 billion in the first phase of an Iowa data center project, CEO Tim Cook said on Thursday, in speech in that state that emphasized Apple's push to "build a future for everyone."

Apple, like fellow technology companies Facebook, Microsoft and Google, will build a data center near Waukee, Iowa, creating 50 permanent jobs, Iowa Lieutenant Governor Adam Gregg said in an event broadcast by the Des Moines Register. More than 550 jobs will also be supported by construction, Apple said in a statement.
