Neos Networks has partnered with Cornerstone and StonesThro to develop a UK sovereign edge cloud infrastructure. This initiative aims to provide low-latency, resilient services by distributing cloud and AI compute power closer to urban and industrial areas. The collaboration focuses on supporting critical national infrastructure (CNI) customers who handle sensitive data, offering an alternative to international cloud providers. The project builds on Neos' Project Reach, which aims to deploy a significant core fibre network across the UK. This distributed model is expected to enhance capabilities for sectors like autonomous vehicles and high-security software providers. The partnership aligns with the UK government's ambitions for AI and data center development. Neos Networks CEO Lee Myall emphasized the importance of their national footprint in supporting high-security projects.
