Artificial intelligence is reshaping the foundations of economic competition. What was once a race for natural resources, trade routes and industrial capacity is increasingly becoming a race for computing power, data infrastructure and the ability to develop and deploy AI at scale.
The shift has turned data centres, advanced computing capacity and digital infrastructure into strategic economic assets. Governments and major technology companies are pouring billions into the infrastructure required to support next-generation AI systems, with industry forecasts suggesting the technology could add trillions of dollars to global economic output in the years ahead.
The UAE is positioning itself at the centre of that transformation through sustained investment in digital infrastructure, computing capabilities and emerging technologies.
Wael Rashid, Business Development Manager and Official Spokesperson at Evest, said:
“For decades, economic strength was closely tied to natural resources and logistics networks. Today, computing capacity has become part of that equation. Countries that build strong digital infrastructure early will be better placed to capture the economic opportunities created by artificial intelligence.”
