Abstract

This chapter provides an in-depth look at the various government initiatives and policies designed to accelerate AI adoption in the Middle East. It outlines the strategic plans of different countries, focusing on their objectives, investments, and the infrastructure being put in place to support AI development. The narrative highlights key policy instruments such as AI readiness assessments, public–private partnerships, and educational reforms aimed at creating an AI-savvy workforce. The chapter also evaluates the effectiveness of these policies in real-world scenarios, analyzing how they translate into growth in AI-related fields and the broader economy. It sheds light on the collaborative efforts between different sectors to create an ecosystem conducive to AI innovation, and how these efforts are positioning the Middle East as a future leader in AI technology.
