UAE data centre market set to triple by 2030 on back of AI, cloud boom
Khaleej Times
|October 21, 2025
The UAE's data centre industry is on the brink of a massive expansion, with the market forecast to more than triple to $3.3 billion by 2030, powered by surging demand for cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and sovereign digital infrastructure.
This projected boom underscores the nation's emergence as one of the world's fastest-growing digital economies and a key regional hub for cloud-based innovation and investment.
According to Research and Markets, the UAE's data centre market - valued at about $1.26 billion in 2024 - is growing at a compound annual growth rate of nearly 18 per cent, with major new capacity coming online across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah. Analysts attribute the growth to AI adoption, data localisation requirements, and ambitious government-backed digital-transformation initiatives that have made data infrastructure a national strategic asset.
