Dubai is taking another bold step toward becoming a global hub for artificial intelligence. Dubai Holding, the diversified global investment company, and Palantir Technologies, a world leader in operational AI platforms, have announced a joint venture named Aither — Palantir’s first in the UAE.
The signing took place in Dubai in the presence of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Holding, and His Excellency Mohamed bin Hadi Al Hussaini, Minister of State for Financial Affairs. The agreement was signed by Amit Kaushal, Group CEO of Dubai Holding, and Noam Perski, Executive Vice President at Palantir.
18 months of proven results
This collaboration isn’t new — it builds on 18 months of successful operations where Dubai Holding integrated Palantir’s AI and data platforms across its portfolio. The results were tangible: faster decision-making, higher efficiency, and enhanced data visibility across real estate, hospitality, finance, and infrastructure — supporting major brands such as Nakheel, Meraas, and Jumeirah.
A national platform for AI excellence
With Aither, Dubai Holding and Palantir are now ready to scale these capabilities across the UAE’s strategic sectors. The joint venture aims to serve as a national AI platform, helping both public and private institutions embrace intelligent operations and unlock new economic opportunities.
Boosting Dubai’s digital economy vision
Aither aligns closely with the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, which targets AED 100 billion annually through digital transformation initiatives. By localising advanced AI technologies, Aither will also transfer technical knowledge, train national talent, and set strong governance standards for responsible AI use across industries.
Operating in full harmony with the UAE’s digital transformation and diversification goals, Aither stands as a milestone in institutionalising enterprise-grade AI within the region — turning proven innovation into a nationwide engine for progress.
