Press release:

OmniOps, Saudi Arabia's sovereign AI infrastructure technology company, today announced at LEAP the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with HPE to develop sovereign AI solutions that bring together HPE’s ‘Saudi Made’ infrastructure and OmniOps’ Saudi-developed AI platforms and in-country deployment capabilities. Aligned with HPE’s Saudi Made, Developed & Deployed (SMDD) initiative, the collaboration aims to help government and enterprise organisations accelerate AI adoption while strengthening digital sovereignty and local technology capabilities.

Combined with OmniOps' deployment infrastructure and enterprise AI management capabilities, this collaboration creates an end-to-end stack in which the servers, infrastructure and AI management layers are built in Saudi Arabia and operating within its jurisdiction.

While data residency and local model deployment have become central to sovereign AI strategies, organizations are increasingly looking further down the technology stack at the infrastructure their workloads run on. By integrating locally produced compute with locally operated AI infrastructure and software, OmniOps is extending that control from hardware through deployment and enterprise AI management.
