The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, how many of the Government’s new AI Growth Zones are in (a) Cambridgeshire and (b) the Huntingdon constituency.

Answered by Kanishka Narayan

The formal application process for AI Growth Zones opened in April 2025. We will be communicating to all formal applicants the outcome of their application shortly and we will move selected sites forward as soon as they are ready. This approach ensures critical AI infrastructure can be delivered quickly to support the UK’s AI ecosystem, enabling development and deployment across sectors while delivering economic benefits across all parts of the country.
