RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – 20 May 2026 – HUMAIN, a PIF company delivering full-stack artificial intelligence solutions, announced today a strategic collaboration with one of its partners McKinsey & Company as part of its broader ecosystem strategy to accelerate enterprise AI adoption across Saudi Arabia. The collaboration aims to help organizations across the Kingdom translate early AI experimentation into measurable improvements in performance, cost efficiency, and revenue generation.

HUMAIN will combine its full-stack AI capabilities and localized infrastructure with McKinsey’s transformation expertise and QuantumBlack, AI by McKinsey’s engineering capabilities to help organizations translate AI ambition into sustained, enterprise-wide impact.

McKinsey’s State of AI in 2025 research found that while AI tools are commonplace, most organizations have not yet embedded them deeply enough into their workflows and processes to realize material enterprise-level benefits. Addressing this is a critical business challenge and priority for organizations globally.

This collaboration will support companies in driving AI adoption, developing the skills and capabilities required to scale usage, and maintaining a focus on constant innovation to enable long-term success.

The collaboration will focus on:

End-to-end AI transformations that deliver measurable business outcomes: from strategy and use-case design to build and scaled deployment across the enterprise

Tailored, agentic AI solutions for business domain transformation: combining advanced models, data, engineering and the HUMAIN AI portfolio to create bespoke applications that reshape core processes and unlock new sources of value

Driving effectiveness and productivity through agentic workflows and platforms in support functions: enhancing decision-making, automating complex tasks, and improving operational efficiency across areas such as finance, HR, procurement, and customer operations

Responsible and secure AI adoption: embedding robust data governance, security, and local data principles to ensure compliant, scalable, and trusted deployment aligned with regional market needs
