The global AI investment landscape has reached unprecedented levels in 2024-2025, fundamentally transforming how capital is allocated across technology sectors and establishing AI as the dominant force in both private and public investment strategies. Over the past two years, AI spending has surged, driven by huge interest in generative AI, rapid expansion of AI infrastructure and strong venture capital (VC) support.

The analysis shows a major shift in investment trends, expanding well beyond traditional VC into infrastructure, energy, data management and geopolitical rivalry. The rapid growth and scale of investment indicate that AI has become the key technology theme of the decade. An increasing number of investors have been demanding evidence of genuine AI-driven value creation, measurable customer outcomes and sustainable competitive advantages that justify the significant AI development costs.
