Platform Markets Group has recently announced the much-anticipated 2nd UK Investment Symposium, set to take place in London on February 6th, 2025. This event aims to bring together investors, industry leaders, and key stakeholders to explore the vast investment opportunities in the rapidly growing UK data centre market.
As the UK economy continues to outperform expectations and solidify its position as the fastest-growing economy in the G7, data centres have now been officially classified as critical infrastructure. This has only added to the urgency and relevance of the symposium, making it a must-attend event for those looking to capitalize on the booming data centre market in the UK.
The symposium will offer a comprehensive analysis of all the data centre markets in the UK, including west and east London, northern UK, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Attendees can expect to gain valuable insights into growth drivers, market trends, and potential opportunities for Freeports, as well as future projections for the industry. Leading investors will also be sharing their perspectives on the outlook for deals, mergers, and acquisitions, real estate, and edge in the UK, shedding light on recent market activities and their implications.
One of the key themes of the symposium will be the readiness for AI data centres and the transformative impact on energy supply. Discussions will focus on whether current government investments in AI support the competitive positioning of the UK and what measures are needed to enhance preparedness. With AI driving an increased demand for renewable energy, the symposium will also explore how UK grids are responding to this challenge and financing the necessary energy infrastructure transition.
This highly anticipated event is designed for investors and private equity leaders, data centre industry executives, government agencies, energy providers, real estate developers, AI specialists, and policymakers. It will take place on February 6th, 2025 in central London, providing a convenient and accessible location for attendees.
