Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: Humain, the new full AI value chain company owned by the Public Investment Forum (PIF), announced its strategic partnership with NVIDIA, the world leader in AI computing infrastructure, to accelerate AI development in Saudi Arabia and the region.
Both parties will leverage NVIDIA platforms and expertise to establish Saudi Arabia as a global leader in AI, GPU cloud computing, and digital transformation to drive innovation and growth worldwide, a recent statement revealed.
This collaboration was announced by Tareq Amin, CEO of Humain, and Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, on stage at the Saudi-US Investment Forum 2025.
Through this partnership, Humain plans to inject a major investment to build AI factories in the Kingdom with a projected capacity of up to 500 megawatts powered by several hundred thousand of NVIDIA’s most advanced GPUs over the next five years.
The first phase of deployment will be an 18,000 NVIDIA GB300 Grace Blackwell AI supercomputer with NVIDIA InfiniBand networking.
These hyperscale AI data centers will provide a secure foundational infrastructure for training and deploying sovereign AI models at scale, enabling industries across Saudi Arabia and worldwide to accelerate innovation and digital transformation.
HUMAIN will deploy the NVIDIA Omniverse™ platform as a multi-tenant system to drive acceleration of the new era of physical AI and robotics through simulation, optimization, and operation of physical environments by new human-AI-led solutions.
This will allow industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and energy to create fully integrated digital twins, boosting efficiency, safety, and sustainability while fast-tracking the Kingdom’s journey toward Industry 4.0.
Commenting on this partnership, Humain’s Amin said: “Our partnership with NVIDIA is a bold step forward in realizing the Kingdom’s ambitions to lead in AI and advanced digital infrastructure. Together, we are building the capacity, capability, and a new globally enabled community to shape a future powered by intelligent technology and empowered people.”
For his part, Huang said: “Together with HUMAIN, we are building AI infrastructure for the people and companies of Saudi Arabia to realize the bold vision of the Kingdom.”
To support this transformation, Humain and NVIDIA will collaborate on large-scale upskilling and training initiatives, providing thousands of Saudi citizens and developers with hands-on experience in advanced AI, simulation, robotics and digital twin technologies.
