Humain to Import 18,000 Nvidia AI Chips for New Data Centres
The centres will initially operate at 100 megawatts each, with plans to scale up as part of Humain’s wider target of reaching 1.9 gigawatts of AI infrastructure by 2030.
Saudi AI developer Humain has secured local approval to bring 18,000 Nvidia Blackwell AI chips into the Kingdom to power its upcoming data centres in Riyadh and Dammam, slated to launch in early 2026.
The centres will initially operate at 100 megawatts each, with plans to scale up as part of Humain’s wider target of reaching 1.9 gigawatts of AI infrastructure by 2030. The move reflects Saudi Arabia’s broader strategy to strengthen its AI capabilities and position itself as a regional hub for advanced computing.
Earlier this year, Humain signed a $10 billion agreement with AMD to further support its infrastructure rollout, demonstrating a significant investment push into high-performance AI solutions. While the Nvidia chip imports have received local approval, final clearance from US regulators is still pending.
