12:47 PM EDT, 05/13/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Amazon.com's ( AMZN ) Amazon Web Services said Tuesday it would invest $5 billion in partnership with the Saudi AI company Humain to advance artificial intelligence in Saudi Arabia.

AWS said it would work with Humain to create a so-called AI Zone in the kingdom which will include dedicated AWS AI infrastructure and servers.

The company previously said it was building an AWS infrastructure region in Saudi Arabia that would become available in 2026 with an investment of $5.3 billion.

"The new AI Zone announced today is an additional investment to grow global and local demand for advanced AI services in the kingdom," AWS said in a statement.

The announcement comes amid US President Donald Trump's visit to the Middle East this week. Trump landed in Saudi Arabia earlier Tuesday and is scheduled to visit Qatar and the United Arab Emirates next.

Nvidia (NVDA) and AMD (AMD) have also announced AI-partnerships with Humain.
