- The GCC Vision 2030 – A Shift from Resources to Intelligence
Vision 2030 aims to diversify economies, strengthen digital infrastructure, and enhance the quality of life.
Each nation’s strategy is different, but the shared direction is clear – AI is the new oil.
Key GCC Drivers of AI Transformation:
Saudi Arabia: $135 billion investment in AI by 2030 – building smart cities like NEOM and The Line.
United Arab Emirates: The first country to appoint a Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence and deploy AI across education, healthcare, and public services.
Qatar: Integrating AI into financial systems, aviation, and smart logistics as part of its Qatar Vision 2030.
Oman & Bahrain: Accelerating e-Government services and cloud-based automation in public administration.
This collective push has turned the GCC into one of the fastest-growing AI ecosystems in the world.
