About UAE AI Center

UAE AI Center is an independent editorial publication covering artificial intelligence in the United Arab Emirates. We track national strategy, sovereign infrastructure, governance, and talent, and explain what each development means for businesses and investors.

We read the primary sources — government announcements, research reports, and company disclosures — and turn them into clear, cited analysis.

What we cover

Our coverage follows the themes shaping AI across the Emirates.

National AI Strategy 2031

Goals, progress, and what the strategy means in practice for businesses and investors.

Sovereign AI & infrastructure

Compute build-out, data platforms, and projects like Stargate UAE and the Abu Dhabi AI campus.

Responsible AI & governance

The UAE's AI ethics principles, the PDPL, and how organizations align with them.

Talent & sector applications

AI skills, the workforce gap, and applications across healthcare, mobility, climate, and smart cities.

How we work

Sourced, not speculative

Every statistic is attributed to a named, public source — Microsoft, PwC, government bodies, peer research — with links you can check.

Independent

We have no affiliation with any government body or vendor. When something is uncertain or contested, we say so.

Useful

We write for people making decisions — explaining what a development is, why it matters, and what to watch next.
