LONDON — Enterprise tech giant Salesforce is opening an artificial intelligence center in London, making a bullish bet on the U.K. as a global technology hub.
The U.S. software giant said in a statement Thursday that it is opening a more-than-40,000-square-foot facility in London’s Blue Fin Building, which can host over 300 people.
It will be used to encourage industry collaboration among tech firms, AI experts, Salesforce partners and customers, the company said, as well as facilitate AI training and upskilling programs.
Salesforce said it expects the AI center to play a role in creating 500,000 AI-related jobs in the U.K.
The facility will officially open June 18 with a free event to train more than 100 developers.
