Britain and the US have struck a tech deal that could bring billions of pounds of investment to the UK.


The “tech prosperity deal”, announced as Mr Trump arrived in the UK on Tuesday night, will see the UK and US cooperate in areas including artificial intelligence, quantum computing and nuclear power.


It comes alongside £31 billion of investment in Britain from America’s top technology companies, including Microsoft and Google.


Plus, we're joined by Professor John Morton, co-founder and CTO of Quantum Motion.


His team have just delivered a full-stack quantum computer to the UK National Quantum Computing Centre.


They believe they’re on track to bring commercially useful quantum computers to market this decade.


This is the first fully functioning quantum computer of its kind to be built using the same silicon chip technology that powers every PC, smartphone and tech device we’re used to.
