Top executives from OpenAI and Nvidia are poised to announce significant commitments to bolster the UK’s data center capacity, sources familiar with the discussions told Bloomberg News.
The initiative, developed in collaboration with London-based Nscale Global Holdings, comes amid a wave of U.S. investment landing in Britain as AI and cloud technologies reshape digital infrastructure needs.
Sam Altman, chief executive of ChatGPT developer OpenAI, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will join a delegation of American tech leaders arriving in the UK next week—a visit that coincides with U.S. President Donald Trump’s trip to meet King Charles.
Their investment signals growing confidence in the UK as a hub for next-generation technology infrastructure, underscoring the increasing necessity for powerful data centers amid surging AI adoption.
The impending capital injection is part of a broader influx of American investment into the UK, with companies expected to unveil projects worth tens of billions of dollars across multiple industries during the high-profile visit, according to those familiar with the matter.
