Expanding the Generative AI Center of Excellence
Building on their global alliance, the companies will extend their Generative AI Center of Excellence (CoE) to Saudi Arabia, offering industry-specific AI solutions. The expansion will help businesses create new opportunities by integrating Google Cloud’s technologies with Accenture’s expertise in enterprise AI solutions.
AI’s Impact on Saudi Arabia’s GDP Growth
According to a recent report by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) and Accenture, generative AI could boost Saudi Arabia’s GDP by 4 percent. To seize this potential, both companies will work closely with clients to identify AI-driven use cases and rapidly scale them for real-world impact.
One example is the General Organization for Social Insurance (GOSI), which has leveraged generative AI to develop a secure, scalable AI environment built on cloud technology. This initiative has enabled its developers and researchers to experiment with the latest AI tools and technologies, extending the value of AI and sovereign cloud through tangible outcomes.
