Microsoft announced Tuesday that it plans to invest $30 billion in AI infrastructure and operations in Britain over the next four years, part of which will go toward building the nation’s largest supercomputer.
Nvidia said it and several infrastructure partners, including Nscale and CoreWeave, would be pouring up to £11 billion, or about $15 billion, into AI factories in the U.K.
This will include up to 120,000 of Nvidia’s most advanced chips, which will help power the newly unveiled Stargate U.K.
OpenAI announced the AI infrastructure partnership with Nvidia and Nscale on Tuesday, modeled after similar efforts in the United States and United Arab Emirates.
Stargate U.K. will ensure the firm’s “world-leading AI models can run on local computing power,” it explained in a blog post.
Meanwhile, Google said it would be investing £5 billion, or about $6.8 billion, in the country over the next two years.
The flurry of tech investments came as Trump traveled to the U.K. on Tuesday for his second state visit.
He and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer are set to sign a tech agreement during the trip, as the two countries agree to partner on the development of AI, quantum computing and nuclear energy.
“This Tech Prosperity Deal marks a generational step change in our relationship with the US, shaping the futures of millions of people on both sides of the Atlantic, and delivering growth, security and opportunity up and down the country,” Starmer said in a statement.
Several U.S. tech leaders, including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, are set to join Trump in the U.K., according to Politico.
