A new era for US-Middle East tech diplomacy?

On this week’s episode of Top in Tech, Megan Stagman, Director, is joined by GC MENA Adviser Aliyah Dar to unpack the key technology and investment developments emerging from US President Donald Trump’s recent tour of the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

They recap the key announcements coming out of the trip - including a new AI campus in Abu Dhabi and increased Saudi investment in US tech firms - and evaluate how this divergence from prior US policy on export restrictions might play domestically. They also dive into the 'data embassy' concept that was raised during the trip with Saudi Arabia, and what the next steps on delivering this are expected to be.
