Saudi Arabia plans to deepen cooperation with American tech giants and invest heavily in building multiple gigawatt-level data centers.

According to Jinse Finance, the American financial media Semafor reports that the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund-backed AI company Humain plans to announce a series of new protocols with American companies tomorrow, as the country is set to invest billions of dollars in a plan aimed at becoming the world's third-largest AI nation. Sources reveal that Humain is planning to collaborate with companies including Amazon, AMD, xAI, and GlobalAI to announce the construction of multiple gigawatt-level data centers. The sources said these agreements are expected to take place after the U.S. approves a significant protocol to sell large quantities of semiconductors to Saudi Arabia. It is currently unclear how many of these agreements are new and substantial, or merely indications of progress on the protocols announced during U.S. President Trump’s visit to Riyadh in May. Humain's CEO Tareq Amin previously stated that he expects to acquire AI chips manufactured in the U.S. when the first data centers open in early 2026.
