Oracle Corp. (NYSE:ORCL) announced Thursday it is expanding its Nashville footprint with a 116,000-square-foot lease at The Neuhoff District, 1320 Adams Street. The move supports rising demand for its cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) services.

Nashville Expansion Adds Capacity

The new lease will increase Oracle's Nashville capacity to about 2,000 seats across three locations. The expansion advances the company's plan to create thousands of tech jobs in the city.

Oracle is hiring across cloud engineering, software development, sales and product roles.

"New candidates as well as our existing Oracle employees are increasingly energized by what we are building here in Nashville," said Scott Twaddle, senior vice president of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

The new office overlooks construction of Oracle's planned riverfront headquarters along the Cumberland River. It also strengthens Oracle's long-term commitment to local hiring and workforce development through partnerships with Belmont University.
