Salesforce has announced a $500 million investment in artificial intelligence (AI) in Saudi Arabia, aiming to bolster the nation’s digital transformation and support its Vision 2030 objectives. This investment includes the introduction of Salesforce’s Hyperforce platform, developed in collaboration with Amazon Web Services, to enhance cloud infrastructure and AI capabilities in the region.
In addition to deploying Hyperforce, Salesforce plans to expand the use of its Agentforce customer service product through partnerships with Capgemini, Deloitte, Globant, IBM, and PwC. This initiative aims to provide AI-driven solutions tailored to the needs of Saudi businesses.
A key component of Salesforce’s strategy is the establishment of a regional headquarters in Riyadh, which will serve as a hub for operations and customer engagement in the Middle East. The company also intends to upskill 30,000 Saudi citizens by 2030, focusing on AI and technology skills to empower the local workforce and foster innovation.
These initiatives were announced during the LEAP 2025 tech event in Saudi Arabia, where the country secured $14.9 billion in AI investments, reinforcing its position as a global hub for technology and innovation.
Through these investments, Salesforce aims to contribute to Saudi Arabia’s digital economy, enhance local talent capabilities, and support the nation’s broader technological ambitions.
