📣 Global tech firms CyrusOne, ServiceNow, CloudHQ, LLC and CoreWeave are investing £6.3 billion into UK data centres.       This investment will give Britain the infrastructure to deploy the next generation of AI technologies, including complex machine learning models and algorithms.    This will allow the UK to roll out AI in areas like healthcare faster, helping everyone live better and healthier lives.    That takes total investment in data centres to over £25 billion since this government took office, further growing the economy and creating jobs across the UK.

Secretary of State Peter Kyle attended the Industry and Tech Ministerial G7 in Rome.   He met with world leaders to strengthen democratic governance of digital and technology and to address the global opportunities and challenges presented by technological development.     He also signed an agreement with US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo for the UK and US governments to work together to advance children's safety online.   This includes the launch of a new joint online safety working group to share expertise on safety technology, promote greater platform transparency and consider the impact of new tech like generative AI. This will help ensure safety is built into technology from the start, delivering a more secure digital world for young people.

Planning has been submitted by DC01UK for a best-in-class data centre in Hertsmere, Hertfordshire. https://ow.ly/x45350TrvSN

DC01UK: Everything you need to know about the UK government-backed Hertfordshire mega-datacentre

We’ve received a lot of questions from local residents asking, What is a Data Centre? 🤔 Data centres are the backbone of the digital world! 🌐 They’re large facilities filled with computer servers that store, process, and manage data. Think of them as hubs that keep your favourite apps, websites, and online services running smoothly. 💻 Here’s what they do: - Cloud Services: Power platforms like Google Drive, Netflix, and online games 🎮 - Internet & Websites: Store the data that makes your favourite websites work 🖥️ - Business Tools: Help companies manage emails, apps, and databases 🏢 - Financial Transactions: Securely process your online banking, shopping, and stock trades 💳 - Data Backup: Keep copies of important data so businesses and individuals don’t lose valuable information 📂 Without data centres, modern life would slow down significantly. From your social media feed to important financial transactions, everything relies on them! As our world gets more connected, data centres will be even more essential for keeping everything running smoothly. 🌍 #DataCentre #Data #TechInfrastructure #CloudCompute #AI

As part of our proposals, we are collaborating with Hertsmere Borough Council to deliver a new Technology and Innovation Hub at the former White Hart site. This project will transform this key community asset into a hub for learning and education, while preserving its status as a listed building in South Mimms. The Technology and Innovation Hub will offer Hertsmere residents, and the wider Hertfordshire community, new training and apprenticeship opportunities, equipping them with valuable skills and experience. Delivered alongside DC01UK, these proposals will provide training and apprenticeship opportunities for all age groups, enhancing technology literacy and computer skills. This initiative will empower residents with high-tech skills, preparing them for careers in the fast-growing technology sector. Teaching today, empowering tomorrow. #technology #data #datacentre #tech #innovation #training #apprenticeship #learning #education #buildingtodaytopowertomorrow #hertfordshire
