RIYADH: Artificial intelligence is reshaping venture capital worldwide — not just as a thematic investment opportunity but as a core enabler of operational transformation.
Saudi Arabia exemplifies this evolution, as AI adoption in the Kingdom is not only accelerating but is also closely aligned with the Vision 2030 strategy for economic diversification.
“Saudi VCs are actually ahead of many regions in AI adoption for deal sourcing and due diligence,” said Charles Kickham, managing director of Cayenne Consulting, told Arab News.
“They’re using platforms like Affinity and Dealroom that incorporate AI for market intelligence and portfolio tracking,” he added.
