Connect | London // DCD Talks building for the UK’s AI future with Spencer Lamb | Kao Data

Join Spencer Lamb, CEO of Kao Data, for a new perspective on the UK’s rapidly evolving data centre, compute and AI landscape, and the opportunity for Britain to establish itself as a global leader in AI infrastructure. The conversation will explore what the industry needs to scale, from access to power and grid capacity, planning reform and investment, to skills, and a clear long-term policy framework. Spencer will discuss the role of data centres as critical national infrastructure and the economic opportunity they can create across the UK, particularly beyond London and the South East. Against this backdrop, the discussion will consider the key actions Prime Minister Andy Burnham should take to unlock investment, accelerate delivery and create the conditions for a globally competitive UK compute ecosystem.
