Telosa is a proposed utopian planned US city conceived by American billionaire Marc Lore and announced in September 2021.[1][2] The project has a target population of 5 million people by 2050, with the first phase of construction expected to house 50,000. The location had initially not been chosen, with the project's planners intending the city to be built on cheap land in Appalachia or the American West desert.[1][3]
The name Telosa is derived from the Ancient Greek word telos, in this case meaning "purpose".[4]
