en.Wedoany.com Reported - Magna AI, a global leader in integrated value chain sovereign AI transformation, established through a collaboration between Trend Micro and Wistron Digital Technology Holding Company (WDH) and powered by NVIDIA, has announced a strategic partnership with Naver Innovation Company. The agreement was officially signed by Dr. Moataz Bin Ali, CEO of Magna AI, and Mr. Yaser Alobaidan, CEO of Naver Innovation, at the Global AI Exhibition in Riyadh, marking a significant step forward in advancing the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's sovereign AI ambitions.
Saudi Arabia is accelerating its efforts to establish a leading position in the global AI landscape, combining substantial national investment with a strong emphasis on trusted, responsible innovation. According to the "2026 AI Index Report" published by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, Saudi Arabia ranks first globally in AI safety, privacy and cryptography, and women's empowerment in AI, reinforcing its commitment to building a secure, inclusive, and globally competitive AI ecosystem. As AI becomes an increasingly vital national asset for Saudi Arabia, the ability to develop and govern sovereign AI is seen as key to sustaining long-term economic growth and technological leadership.
This collaboration combines Magna AI's integrated sovereign AI capabilities with the local expertise of Naver Innovation Company. Together, they will advance trusted AI infrastructure, secure AI platforms, and drive sovereign AI capabilities, enabling government agencies and enterprises to accelerate innovation while ensuring security, operational resilience, and regulatory compliance.
The partnership will also support AI transformation and digital empowerment in the government and enterprise sectors, helping organizations move from AI ambition to scaled application through secure, scalable, and locally governed AI capabilities. By unifying infrastructure, intelligence, security, and transformation within a single framework, the partnership aims to unlock long-term economic and social value and contribute to the realization of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 goals.
Dr. Moataz Bin Ali, CEO of Magna AI, stated that every industrial revolution has been defined by those who built and controlled its critical infrastructure. In the AI era, that infrastructure is intelligence itself. Through the partnership with Naver Innovation Company, Magna AI is helping build the foundation that enables governments and enterprises to create, scale, and capture the value of AI, supporting Saudi Arabia's ambition to lead the next generation of the global intelligent economy.
At the Global AI Exhibition in Riyadh, Magna AI participated as the title sponsor, showcasing its end-to-end sovereign AI ecosystem and demonstrating how integrated, secure, and scalable AI can empower governments and enterprises to accelerate the Kingdom's next phase of digital transformation.
