The United Arab Emirates continues to consolidate its global leadership in artificial intelligence (AI), relying on advanced national strategies aimed at integrating the latest technologies across various economic and service sectors.
-
This contributes to enhancing its competitiveness on the global map among the most advanced nations in modern technologies.
The G42 Group and its subsidiaries have played a pivotal role in this momentum by developing smart and innovative solutions during the first half of this year. These efforts have reinforced the UAE's capabilities in localising technology and enabling sustainability. Collectively, the companies are active across diverse sectors, including advanced services in healthcare, energy, cybersecurity, culture, education, digital services, and other areas that reflect the UAE's leadership in rapidly adopting artificial intelligence technologies.
Officials from G42's subsidiaries told the Emirates News Agency (WAM) that the companies' achievements collectively embody the group's strategy of consolidating sovereign artificial intelligence while maintaining data security and operational efficiency. This reaffirms the UAE's position as a global hub for innovation and Al leadership across vital sectors.
Hadi Anwar, CEO of CBX, said that achieving digital sovereignty necessarily requires the deployment of effective cybersecurity. He noted that the company has integrated Al-powered cybersecurity into the core of its “Intelligence Network,” employing Al technologies across three main axes: prevention, detection, and response.
