LONDON – September 16, 2025 – CoreWeave, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWV) the AI
Hyperscaler™, today announced the next £1.5 billion phase of its investment in AI data
centre capacity and operations in the United Kingdom, bringing the total investment in
the country to £2.5 billion. The investment is designed to power the next wave of AI
innovation by building facilities that prioritise sustainability and environmental
responsibility.
The announcement took place during a State Visit by President Donald J. Trump to the
UK, and is intended to help address the UK’s critical need for state-of-the-art
infrastructure tailored for the responsible advancement of AI workloads at scale.
CoreWeave’s investment will help accelerate the UK Government’s Compute Roadmap
and provide AI labs, enterprises, the public sector, research institutions and startups
with advanced, purpose-built AI infrastructure to drive innovation and growth. It will also
support local job creation across engineering, operations and related services.
“Our investment in the UK will establish one of the world’s largest concentrations of
state-of-the-art, sustainable compute, unlocking new opportunities for innovation,
economic growth, and scientific discovery,” said Michael Intrator, Co-Founder,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CoreWeave. “It allows us to deliver
unparalleled AI performance with the lowest possible environmental impact, setting a
new global standard. We look forward to collaborating with the UK Government and the
broader ecosystem to drive the next wave of responsible AI leadership around the
world.”
“Artificial Intelligence will drive incredible change in our country and has the potential to
transform our public services and infrastructure,” said Prime Minister, Keir Starmer.
“This investment by CoreWeave is a clear vote of confidence in Britain’s potential to
become a world leader in AI. I'm determined to back innovation and create more highly
skilled jobs through partnerships like these, as we deliver on our Plan for Change.”
As part of this investment, CoreWeave is partnering with NVIDIA and DataVita in
Scotland. Together they will deploy the most advanced NVIDIA Grace Blackwell Ultra
GPUs, backed entirely by renewable energy, and leveraging state-of-the-art closed-loop
cooling technology to minimise water consumption. This continues CoreWeave’s
practice of using renewable energy across its European data centres. CoreWeave is
also planning an additional sovereign AI infrastructure deployment with NVIDIA GB300
GPUs and NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell Server Edition GPUs.
“Today marks a historic chapter in U.S.–United Kingdom technology collaboration. We are at the big bang of the AI era — and the United Kingdom stands in a Goldilocks position, where world-class talent, research and industry converge,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. "By building state-of-the-art AI infrastructure and investing in British startups, we are unlocking the power of AI for the U.K. — fueling breakthroughs, creating jobs, and igniting the next industrial revolution."

“This collaboration strengthens Scotland’s role as a driving force in the economy,” said
Danny Quinn, Managing Director at DataVita. “With our sustainable, future-ready
platform, Scotland is well positioned to become a hub for the UK’s AI ambitions,
fostering innovation, driving growth and supporting the UK’s position as a global AI
leader.”
Today’s announcement builds on CoreWeave’s rapid execution and continued
investment across the public sector, both in the UK and globally. In May 2024, the
company committed £1 billion to establish and expand its UK operations. That
commitment brought two new AI data centres online in just six months, a pace
unmatched by competitors. Beyond the UK, CoreWeave recently announced plans with
the local US government to allocate up to $6 billion to equip a state-of-the-art data
centre in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, advancing its mission to power the global AI
ecosystem.
CoreWeave supports independent founders and startups shaping the AI ecosystem
through CoreWeave Ventures, an investment initiative that provides resources including
direct capital investment, compute-for-equity transactions and technical collaboration to
accelerate the next frontier of computing.
In keeping with its long-standing collaboration with UK innovation, CoreWeave serves
as the Official AI Cloud Computing Partner of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One®
Team, supporting the development of the team’s first large-scale cloud computing
facility.
