Sites on this Campus:

The Elevate Quarter data centers in Stevenage, UK, represent a landmark £900 million ($1.2 billion) co-location project engineered to merge digital infrastructure with advanced medicine.

Backed by a joint venture between Reef Origin and Swiss bank UBS (operating under the Forge_Kn platform), the development will feature two high-performance computing facilities carved out of a 30-acre site adjacent to GSK’s global R&D hub. Positioned within the London Public Cloud Region and backed by an initial 24MVA power delivery slated for Q1 2027, these purpose-built data centers will provide the massive processing power and AI capabilities necessary to anchor Europe’s largest cluster for cell and gene therapy.
