A Saudi telecom giant's infrastructure arm, center3, is partnering with an AI firm called HUMAIN to build advanced data centers for AI in the kingdom. Their new joint venture aims to create facilities that can handle up to one gigawatt of AI computing power. The goal is to combine expertise in data centers with full-stack AI capabilities to support large language models and other demanding applications.
Executives from both companies stated that the infrastructure needs to be purpose-built for scale and efficiency. They claim this move will help meet surging regional demand for high-capacity, low-latency AI hosting. The partnership is framed as a step toward strengthening Saudi Arabia's digital ecosystem and its capacity for next-generation workloads.
