Go to PodcastThe high-profile plan to develop a massive AI data center campus at the Bosquel Business Park suffered a critical setback in March 2026 when the London-founded "neocloud" provider Fluidstack officially withdrew from the project. The company had previously committed to constructing a 1-gigawatt AI infrastructure facility on the site; however, it has canceled its European expansion plans to concentrate resources on the United States market.
