The new facility, located in the London area, is among the country’s most advanced AI supercomputing platforms.
Powered by Nvidia Blackwell Ultra GPUs and Nvidia Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking, the deployment delivers unprecedented performance for generative AI and future foundation model development. It follows similar Nebius infrastructure rollouts across Europe, the US, and Israel, marking a milestone in the company’s global AI expansion.
Arkady Volozh, founder and CEO of Nebius said: “This launch is a milestone for Nebius and for the UK’s growing AI ecosystem. By combining our cloud infrastructure foundations with Nvidia’s latest technology, we’re empowering organizations across the UK to train, deploy, and scale AI models and applications faster, more securely, and more sustainably than ever.”
Anthony Hills, regional director enterprise business, UK&I at Nvidia added: “The UK’s industrial future is being reshaped by AI. With Nebius deploying advanced AI infrastructures, built on the Nvidia accelerated computing platform, we are helping to unlock the potential of British data to drive innovation, fuel economic growth, and strengthen national resilience.”
The UK deployment is designed to support businesses, researchers, and public services across sectors including healthcare, life sciences, fintech, robotics, and pharma. Among the first partners is Basecamp Research, which uses AI to tackle frontier challenges in life sciences.
Basecamp Research co-founder Oliver Vince said: “Tackling unprecedented challenges like designing programmable medicines requires infrastructure that can handle massive proprietary datasets from across the globe while maintaining the speed and reliability to push scientific boundaries.
“Nebius’s infrastructure delivers the scale and performance we need; having it here in the UK means we keep greater control over our data and can compete at the cutting edge of AI-driven life sciences.”
Prima Mente, an AI neuroscience company, also benefits from the deployment, developing models for potential treatments for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
Prima Mente founder and CEO Ravi Solanki said: “Training multi-billion parameter foundation models on biological data demands infrastructure that can scale rapidly without breaking our workflow. Nebius enables us to spin up dozens of experiments simultaneously, accelerating our mission to decode the mechanisms behind Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Having this performance available locally means we can deliver better diagnostics for patients across the UK faster.”
The facility features advanced energy-efficient cooling, resilient on-site power, low-latency Quantum-X800 networking, and full integration with Nvidia AI Enterprise software. Nebius AI Cloud 3.0 “Aether” provides enterprise-grade scalability, SOC2 Type II certification, HIPAA compliance, and full GDPR and CCPA data protection, supporting next-generation AI workloads across sectors.
