OpenAI is launching Stargate UAE, the first international deployment of its AI infrastructure platform, Stargate. This marks the first partnership under OpenAI for Countries, a new global initiative to help countries build their own sovereign AI capabilities.
The collaboration is being carried out with G42, Oracle, NVIDIA, Cisco, SoftBank, and was pursued in close cooperation with the U.S. government. Key investments include:
- Building a 1GW-scale Stargate UAE cluster in Abu Dhabi (with 200MW set to go live in 2026)
- UAE investment in Stargate infrastructure within the United States
Through this partnership, the UAE plans to use OpenAI's tools across key sectors including government, energy, healthcare, education, and transportation to accelerate innovation and economic growth. Notably, the UAE plans to become the first country in the world to enable ChatGPT nationwide, giving its citizens access to the technology.
OpenAI is aiming to partner with 10 countries going forward, and also plans to launch a roadshow in the Asia-Pacific region to build infrastructure and deliver AI services.
