This project seems to be twin sites in Hamilton County and Bradley Counties. It is code named "Project Infinity" and is said a logistical company or Internet based company.

Bradley site is at Interstate 75 and Lauderdale Memorial Highway and may be up to 1,000 jobs.

Hamilton County site is on Enterprise South and is 80 acres.  Up to 2000 jobs.
