Bain & Company has released its sixth annual Global Technology Report, offering an in-depth analysis of the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI), quantum computing, robotics, and the broader tech sector.

The report projects that by 2030, global demand for AI computing could require as much as US$500 billion annually in data centre investments, translating into approximately US$2 trillion in new cloud revenue. Despite expected cost savings from AI adoption, Bain estimates that the industry will still face an annual funding shortfall of around US$800 billion to meet future demand.

Vantage Data Centers has announced the upcoming launch of its second London campus, LHR2, set to open at the end of September.

Situated in the Park Royal district, this 194,000-square-foot facility will provide 20 megawatts of IT capacity and represents a £250 million investment in the local economy. The new data centre coincides with the London Design Festival, which runs from September 13 to 21, and features a notable public art installation titled "11 Million Dots." This six-story facade installation pays tribute to Park Royal’s industrial past while celebrating its transformation into a vibrant urban hub. Created through a collaboration with the Park Royal Design District and local artist Rafael El Baz, the artwork incorporates ambient noise and machinery sounds from the area, transforming them into binary code and waveforms that evoke microchips, maps, and cityscapes, turning the building into a cultural landmark.
