Named for the moment America stopped watching the future happen and started building it.

On May 5, 1961, Alan Shepard became the first American to travel into space aboard the Freedom 7 spacecraft, establishing the United States as a contender in the space race and declaring a national mission to win. By aiming higher and committing harder than the Soviets, eight years later we did. The Moon was a goal they never matched.

Today, America is in a new race for AI and compute supremacy, and the stakes are just as high. Compute is the raw material every AI application runs on: healthcare diagnostics, financial tools, defense systems, and everything downstream. Whoever controls the largest share of it doesn't just win an economic contest - they set the technical standards, the safety rules, and the terms everyone else has to live with and build on top of.

The country that builds the most compute the fastest will set the rules for the next century of economic, military, and technological power. They'll have the most innovation, the most infrastructure, and the most jobs.

Named for the mission that solidified America's global leadership and commitment to innovation, the Freedom 7 Coalition is a group of industry leaders that believes American infrastructure and ingenuity can win again, but only if we build. Freedom 7 will work to ensure responsible AI infrastructure is an American imperative.
