Khazna<\/strong>, Nvidia to build AI clusters across MEA:<\/strong> Dubai\u2019s Khazna Data Centers is partnering with Nvidia to develop data centers across the Middle East and Africa (MEA), starting with next-gen data halls in the UAE built to support Nvidia\u2019s Blackwell architecture, according to a statement<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The details: <\/strong>The plan includes AI clusters with a capacity of up to 250 MW, with all future builds set to follow Nvidia-certified blueprints. Many of the clusters are set to be located within the planned 5 GW UAE-US AI campus announced during US President Donald Trump\u2019s recent visit.<\/span><\/p>\n

REFRESHER-<\/strong> The 5 GW AI campus is the centerpiece of a USD 200 bn US-UAE investment pact<\/a> covering AI, critical minerals, and energy. The facility is set to be the largest data infrastructure site outside the US, and will host American-managed services<\/a> and serve as a regional AI hub. The first phase of the complex \u2014 Stargate UAE, which is backed by Khazna majority stakeholder G42 \u2014 is set to come online in 2026<\/a>, with plans for it to be equipped with Nvidia Grace Blackwell GB300 systems (potentially requiring around 100k chips). The agreement, however, remains \u201cfar from complete,\u201d with security concerns<\/a> over Chinese tech access stalling progress.<\/p>\n

The UAE has been working hard to access more Nvidia chips: <\/strong>The UAE and the US reportedly reached an export agreement that could allow the UAE to receive up to 500k Nvidia chips annually<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Khazna has been expanding data center capacity both at home and abroad: <\/strong>The firm is targeting 1 GW of capacity across Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Kenya, France, and Italy. In Turkey, it is building a 100 MW AI-ready data center<\/a> in Ankara. In the UAE, it\u2019s developing three new AI-optimized facilities \u2014 two 30 MW data centers<\/a> in Mafraq and Masdar city, and a 100 MW site<\/a> in Ajman \u2014 all due by end-2026. The company is also advancing builds in Saudi<\/a> and finalizing plans for a USD 250 mn data center<\/a> in Egypt. Khazna is currently valued at USD 5.5 bn.<\/p>\n
