About this report
The United Kingdom has entered a new phase in its bid to become a global leader in artificial intelligence through a strategic partnership with OpenAI, the U.S.-based company behind ChatGPT. Announced on July 21, 2025, the agreement is positioned as a cornerstone of Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s plan to transform the UK into an “AI superpower.”
The partnership aims to deepen collaboration in AI safety research, foster investment in domestic AI infrastructure, and facilitate the deployment of OpenAI’s capabilities in key public sectors.
