The #MarshallForum at @StanfordLaw brought UK & US leaders to CA to discuss AI’s impact on innovation, security and work. CG Kiloh and Minister Counsellor @Mungo Woodifield joined @MarshallAlums to highlight the power of transatlantic collaboration to shape the future. 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇸

The UK has an exceptional ecosystem for AI safety and security.
@NVIDIA's backing will affirm that conviction and help our AI security ecosystem do even more to build trust 🇬🇧
From enterprise to Earthshot, the UK is building with NVIDIA. 🇬🇧
More computing power and open models are helping developers, researchers, and businesses bring AI into healthcare, banking, and public services.
We’re also committing $250 million in computing access over five years to UK research on AI agent safety and security.
NVIDIA is joining The Earthshot Prize as a Global Alliance Founding Partner, bringing computing power and technical expertise to innovators tackling climate and sustainability challenges around the world.

🇺🇸⚕️🇬🇧 When the UK and the United States work together, we can improve the lives of people on both sides of the Atlantic. The UK-U.S. pharmaceutical deal means more breast cancer patients in the UK will receive this life-extending drug. bbc.com/news/articles/c60qx4… @USAinUK

.@Mungo Woodifield made the case for why the UK is betting big on AI-driven science. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
The vision: pair Britain's rich data, like NHS health records, with US compute power, and let two of the world's most productive research partners push each other further. £110B in public science investment is already flowing through 2030. On regulation, the UK's approach isn't to slow things down. It's to build the expertise, through its AI Security Institute, to make smart calls as the technology moves fast.

I’ve always believed the No.1 application of AI should be to improve human health.
That work started with AlphaFold, and now at @IsomorphicLabs with the mission to reimagine drug discovery and one day solve all disease!
We are turbocharging that goal with $2.1B in new funding.

UK Tech has had the most insane month in its entire history:
> @IneffableLabs raised $1.1bn at a $5bn valuation
> Recursive Superintelligence raised $500m at a $4bn valuation
> @OpenAI announced its first permanent office in London
> @AnthropicAI is double downing on the UK, quadrupling its headcount here
> Jeff Bezos is looking to build an office here for his new AI startup
> Anthropic is looking to buy chips from Fractile
> @UKSovereignAI launched with £500m and invested in @CallosumAI
> @Revolut is targeting a $100bn secondary sale and $200bn IPO
> @ElevenLabs announced adding $100m of ARR in Q1
> @synthesiaIO announced huge international expansion plans
> @cusp_ai is in talks to raise at way above $1bn+
> @IsomorphicLabs, the @GoogleDeepMind spinout from @demishassabis, is preparing for human clinical trials
The rise of London as Europe's leading AI hub has been crazy to witness.
Major labs are either expanding or being set up here, chip companies are raising hundreds of millions here, and application level companies are flying.
2026 will be looked back on one of the ecosystem's defining years.

Beautifully put by a great friend to the UK @SecRollins
As we welcome His Majesty King Charles III to the United States, it’s a great reminder of the strength of the U.S.-UK relationship and what we can achieve together.🇺🇸🤝🇬🇧
King Charles’s visit reminds us why the Special Relationship between America and Britain remains the world’s strongest alliance. Rooted in shared values, history, and our commitment to freedom and prosperity.
The historic U.S.-UK trade deal is a major win for American agriculture, opening a $5 BILLION market for our farmers, ranchers, and producers.
✅ Expanded access for U.S. beef, ethanol, and ag exports
✅ Hundreds of millions in new ethanol exports
✅ Fewer unfair barriers holding back American producers
✅ Faster, more efficient trade between our nations
As Thomas Jefferson remarked to James Monroe about the relationship between the United States and Britain in 1806, “No two countries upon earth have so many points of common interest & friendship.”
Thank you to our British friends for this valued partnership.

As we face an increasingly volatile world, our nuclear deterrent is more important than ever.
Thank you for keeping Britain and NATO safe 🇬🇧

The UK and US share one of the world’s most powerful economic relationships, with more than $1.7 trillion invested in each other and growing.
Supporting over 2.5 million jobs and $430 billion in trade, this partnership delivers real value on both sides of the Atlantic. #GreaterTogether

We were proud to host the space community for their third annual #GalacticBritain reception! 🛰️🤝
Taking place during #SatShow2026 and following the recent announcement of increased support for the UK's space industry, the event highlighted how international collaboration is unlocking the vast potential of space 🌍️
Thank you to @SpaceHappyHour @OdinSpaceUK @ConnorGp for their support!
The regeneration of Kings Cross by dynamic companies like @GoogleDeepMind is a metaphor for the potential impact of the UK tech sector on Britain's economy.
London has incredible talent & entrepreneurial spirit. Thrilled to deepen @GoogleDeepMind’s roots here with our spectacular new building Platform 37 - a nod to AlphaGo’s legendary Move 37. It’s a tribute to Science & AI, and an inspirational space for our next big breakthroughs!

Some politicians love to talk the UK down, but UK AI & Tech is moving at 100mph!
Time to shift the narrative - so last night I started building a scrappy real-time dashboard to track the UK AI story: vibeshift.uk
The code’s on my GitHub if you want to help build it out :)
