London — President Donald Trump capped off his state visit to Britain on Thursday with a major win for American workers and businesses, signing a landmark “tech prosperity deal” with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer that promises to bring billions in investment and thousands of new jobs on both sides of the Atlantic.
The agreement focuses on key strategic industries — including artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and nuclear energy — and marks the largest tech-related investment package in British history. American companies are pledging over $42 billion into the U.K.’s AI sector alone, with Microsoft committing $30 billion to build new AI infrastructure, including Britain’s largest supercomputer.
U.S. Strength Driving Global Growth
President Trump underscored how his America First economic policies continue to pay dividends for U.S. innovation and competitiveness. He noted that without his administration’s steel tariffs and tough trade policies, the United States “would only have a fraction of the investment we are seeing today.”
Trump hailed the partnership as evidence of the United States’ unmatched leadership in cutting-edge industries. “Our historic agreement on science and technology partnerships will create new government, academic, and private-sector cooperation in areas such as AI, which is taking over the world,” he said.
Reaffirming the Special Relationship
Starmer, who has praised Trump throughout the visit, emphasized the enduring “special relationship” between the two nations, describing their personal rapport as one built on “respect” and “genuine friendship.” At a business roundtable with tech leaders including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, Starmer called the deal “the biggest investment package of its kind in British history by a country mile.”
Trump echoed that sentiment, calling the U.S.–U.K. bond “unbreakable” and reaffirming his commitment to strengthening Western alliances based on mutual respect and shared economic prosperity.
A Bold Vision for the Future
The agreement includes the launch of a U.K. arm of Stargate, a Trump-backed AI infrastructure project led by OpenAI, and a network of new American-built data centers across Britain. U.K. officials said the deal would create thousands of high-paying jobs and accelerate technological progress for decades to come.
By securing this historic deal, Trump has once again shown the world that strong U.S. leadership fuels global innovation and economic growth — and that under his leadership, America remains the driving force behind the industries of the future.
