Presight, a global AI and big data analytics company, with Abu Dhabi-based technology group G42 as its majority shareholder, has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Industry and New Technologies of the Republic of Tajikistan to establish strategic collaboration in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).
The MoU outlines a strategic collaboration to support the growth of Tajikistan’s AI ecosystem.
Under the MoU, the parties intend to cooperate in areas including the piloting of AI-powered government and enterprise solutions in key sectors such as smart cities, energy and cybersecurity. The MoU also includes the creation of a joint working group to coordinate pilot projects, support the transfer of technologies, and explore AI-driven innovation across the country.
In addition, the parties will explore AI-based operational solutions for critical infrastructure such as the Dushanbe International Airport.
The collaboration, say the partners, is a testament to the growing economic and technological ties between Tajikistan and the United Arab Emirates, and reflects Presight’s commitment to advancing digital transformation across Central Asia.
Sherali Kabir, Minister of Industry and New Technologies of Tajikistan, says: “Our nation has pioneered the full supply chain of AI – from green AI compute to frontier synthetic data applications and introduction of AI in the school curriculum. We view Presight as a strategic AI partner for Area AI, our global AI technopark, with plans for joint AI deployments in smart cities, industry and infrastructure.”
