HUMAIN and NVIDIA Forge Landmark Partnership to Establish Saudi Arabia as Global AI Powerhouse

HUMAIN, the AI subsidiary of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, has announced a strategic collaboration with NVIDIA to accelerate AI development, digital transformation, and global innovation. This partnership aims to position Saudi Arabia as a leader in AI infrastructure, GPU cloud computing, and AI-driven industries.

As part of the agreement, HUMAIN will build AI factories in Saudi Arabia with a projected 500MW capacity, powered by NVIDIA’s advanced GPUs, including an 18,000-unit GB300 Grace Blackwell AI supercomputer. These hyperscale data centers will enable sovereign AI models, fostering national digital independence.

The collaboration also includes deploying NVIDIA Omniverse to drive Industry 4.0 and launching large-scale workforce upskilling initiatives, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
