This, along with almost £300 million of investment by more than 50 leading technology companies and organisations, has contributed to the development of an AI sector deal worth almost £1 billion.
This AI sector deal follows record levels of investments into UK tech in the last 12 months including new investments such as:
- Japanese venture capital firm Global Brain opening its first European HQ in the UK.
- The University of Cambridge making its new AI supercomputer infrastructure available to business
- Vancouver-based venture capital firm Chrysalix committed to establishing a European HQ in the UK investing up to £110 million in AI and robotics.
- The Alan Turing Institute and Rolls-Royce to jointly-run research projects.
- 19 out of the top 25 European software and IT suppliers have a base in London.
This makes Excel well-positioned to deliver exceptional events in the sector, increasing delegate numbers and accessing locally-based speakers.
