THE company behind plans for a new £10bn data centre campus in Northumberland has met with local businesses to identify potential partnerships.

- JAMES ROBINSON Local Democracy Reporter

QTS, the data centre subsidiary of US investment giant Blackstone, is building a vast facility to provide computing power for tech firms at Cambois near Blyth.

More than 30 local businesses met with officials from the company on Monday to learn more about the data centre campus and how they may be able to dovetail together. It is expected the site will employ around 400 “highly skilled” staff once completed as well as over 1,000 long-term construction jobs and roughly 2,600-2,700 indirect jobs.
