The UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar are diversifying their economies by attracting AI and tech talent, ensuring long-term growth in AI services
AI development is rapidly transforming the infrastructure landscape in the Middle East. Countries like Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Israel are heavily investing in AI training and inference capabilities, positioning themselves as key players in the AI-driven economy. Training AI models requires significant computational resources, vast data storage and high-speed processors supported by cutting-edge GPUs. Countries in the region prioritize high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure and there is an increase in massive investments in data centers like Abu Dhabi’s G42 and Israel’s Nvidia AI Lab. The G42 cloud and computing infrastructure is expanding to handle petaflops of computing power, positioning itself to train large AI models for regional and global needs.
