Invested in London with SEGRO plc and Pure Data Centres
The UK’s next growth story could depend on an asset class most people might not expect.
Data centres are no longer just a technology conversation. They are becoming essential infrastructure that underpins economic growth, AI, energy resilience and London’s long-term competitiveness.
In the latest episode of Invested in London: Partnerships Shaping the City, Journalist Emily Wright and Jace Tyrrell, Chief Executive, Opportunity London are joined by Andrew Pilsworth, Managing Director, Data Centres & Strategic Partnerships, SEGRO plc and Dame Dame Dawn Childs DBE FREng, Chief Executive, Pure Data Centres Group.
Together, they explore why London remains a strategic location for digital infrastructure, the role of public-private partnership in delivering the next generation of data centres, and how policy can keep pace with growing investor demand.
The conversation also tackles some of the biggest misconceptions around the sector, from jobs and sustainability to energy, planning and the role data centres play in supporting everything from healthcare and financial services to AI.
If you’re interested in the future of London’s infrastructure, investment landscape and digital economy, this is one not to miss.
