White Paper
The Network-Driven Economy in the UK
This white paper by 451 Research, on behalf of Digital Realty, explores the emergence of a network-driven economy in the UK, where digital infrastructure and high-bandwidth connectivity are foundational to business success. Surveying 100 high-bandwidth enterprises across sectors, the report reveals key trends including widespread adoption of cloud, AI, and IoT, increasing reliance on colocation for low-latency and scalable infrastructure, and a growing emphasis on data sovereignty, security, and hybrid cloud models. The UK’s strategic location and London’s dense interconnection ecosystem make it a critical hub for digital operations and international business growth.
