As a UK AI/biotech startup, we've been trying to get access to compute here in the UK but have found nothing (suggestions welcome).

We are getting free credits from US-based cloud companies but noticed they ask a lot of questions about our business model, technology and customers. That may be the objective of the free credits.

It makes me wonder if re-incorporating elsewhere would be beneficial.

If you have a constant baseline need for compute, just buy GPUs and run them in a colo or on-prem in your office (if power/cooling allows). If your workloads work on consumer hardware you can use consumer GPUs. Use on-demand cloud vendors only for peak/extra capacity.
