Introduction As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform global industries and redefine economic priorities, Saudi Arabia is taking a proactive legislative approach to enhance its leadership in the field. In alignment with Vision 2030 and the National Strategy for Data & Artificial Intelligence (NSDAI), the Kingdom has introduced a groundbreaking legislative initiative: the Draft Global AI Hub Law. Issued by the Communications, Space and Technology Commission (CST) on April 14, 2025, the draft law is designed to position Saudi Arabia as a global destination for AI innovation and investment. It proposes a legal framework to regulate the development, deployment, and governance of AI technologies, while also encouraging the establishment of sovereign data centers or “AI hubs” within the Kingdom’s jurisdiction.
