CoreWeave, the cloud computing company that provides companies with AI compute resources, has formally opened its first two data centers in the U.K. — its first outside its domestic U.S. market.
CoreWeave opened its European headquarters in London last May, shortly after earning a $19 billion valuation off the back of a $1.1. billion fundraise. At the same time, the company announced plans to open two data centers as part of a £1 billion ($1.25 billion) investment in the U.K.
Today’s news coincides with a separate announcement from the U.K. government, which details a five-year investment plan to bolster government-owned AI computing capacity as well as geographic “AI Growth Zones,” which includes AI infrastructure from the private sector.
