@DubaiFuture Foundation, in collaboration with
@IBM Institute for Business Value, has launched a new global study titled "Orchestrating AI at Scale for Sovereignty and Resilience", highlighting the UAE's strong position in adopting AI orchestration platforms and its ability to outpace many global peers.
His Excellency Khalfan Belhoul, CEO of the Dubai Future Foundation, said: “The UAE’s early efforts to advance AI across sectors reflect its national vision to build a resilient, future-ready digital economy. In a rapidly evolving global and regional landscape, the ability to scale AI confidently while maintaining stability and continuity will be key to sustaining growth and reinforcing the UAE’s position as a global leader in advanced technologies.”
Saad Toma, General Manager of IBM Middle East and Africa, said: “Organizations can no longer have fragmented AI systems that limit visibility, weaken control, and erode value. Orchestration-led AI adoption provides the visibility, control, and coordination needed to maintain operational stability, reduce risk, and ensure AI continues to deliver value.”
The study found that organizations are continuing to increase their investments in AI, with nearly two-thirds of organizations in both the UAE (68%) and globally (67%) expected to adopt AI systems at scale by 2030. The findings underscore the growing importance of greater control, visibility, and accountability in AI deployment.
According to the report, organizations that adopt integrated, capability-driven AI governance models are better positioned to scale AI initiatives, improve performance, and generate stronger returns on investment. Some organizations reported productivity gains from AI initiatives that were up to six times greater than those achieved through more traditional approaches.
