Saudi PIF-backed HUMAIN receives first shipment of latest NVIDIA AI chips
HUMAIN has received its first shipment of the latest NVIDIA artificial intelligence GPU chips, marking a major milestone in the company’s plans to scale advanced AI infrastructure.
The delivery strengthens HUMAIN’s ability to train and operate large-scale AI models and comes as the company accelerates deployment ahead of the new year. The chips will support high-performance computing workloads, enabling faster training, secure inference and more complex simulations.
“HUMAIN continues to move at remarkable speed,” said CEO Tareq Amin. “The first shipment of the latest state-of-the-art NVIDIA AI GPU chips has arrived. The team will be fully focused on rapid deployment, ensuring everything is up and running before the start of the new year.”
Amin said the arrival of the chips reflects the company’s ambition and execution as it builds world-class AI capabilities at scale.
Launched in May 2025 by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, HUMAIN is developing an integrated AI ecosystem to support economic diversification under Vision 2030.
The company is working closely with NVIDIA following an expanded strategic partnership announced in November, under which HUMAIN plans to deploy up to 600,000 NVIDIA AI infrastructure units over the next three years.
As part of this collaboration, HUMAIN is building NVIDIA-powered AI data centres in Saudi Arabia and expanding into the United States, creating sovereign AI infrastructure capable of supporting enterprise workloads and next-generation model development.
The company is also collaborating on Arabic-language AI models, physical AI and digital-twin technologies, while advancing partnerships with global technology firms to establish large-scale computing capacity both inside the Kingdom and internationally.
The first shipment of NVIDIA’s latest chips positions HUMAIN as a key player in the global race to develop advanced AI infrastructure and reinforces Saudi Arabia’s ambition to become a leading hub for artificial intelligence and digital innovation.
