D-AI and Saudi Arabia's PIF launch a multi-year partnership to build national AI and cloud infrastructure.
D-AI signed a multi-year Memorandum of Understanding with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) to develop sovereign national data centers, digital identity frameworks and cloud computing systems — forming a foundation of Saudi Arabia's long-term digital transformation under Vision 2030.
The partnership follows a shared-benefit economic model designed to retain national value within the Kingdom, emphasizing locally governed systems, operational command within Saudi Arabia and the development of homegrown technical leadership — ensuring full national ownership of critical data infrastructure, security protocols and high-performance computing resources.
"Saudi Arabia is not simply adopting technology — it is designing the architecture of its digital future on its own terms. This partnership empowers the Kingdom to own its infrastructure, shape its AI capabilities, and ensure that long-term strategic and economic value remains with its people."
