Intelligent Data Centres Summit - Investing in the Foundations: Mobilising Capital for MENA’s Data Centre Boom

Across the MENA region, intelligent data centres are emerging as the critical backbone of national AI ambitions, powering everything from sovereign clouds to autonomous systems, predictive healthcare, and next-generation energy management. But building this infrastructure at scale requires bold investment, deep collaboration, and strategic foresight. 

This session explores how global initiatives like the AI Infrastructure Partnership (AIP) are reshaping how capital is mobilized to fund secure, sustainable, and AI-optimized data infrastructure. It will examine how MENA governments, sovereign funds, and private investors can accelerate the development of intelligent, self-healing, AI-native data centres that are critical for powering the region’s digital transformation.
