Infobip has launched a new data center in Saudi Arabia, underscoring its commitment to supporting the Kingdom’s rapidly expanding digital economy.

This strategic move positions Infobip as a key partner for businesses and government entities seeking robust data sovereignty, enhanced security, and compliance with local regulations.

Infobip’s new in-Kingdom data center addresses these challenges by enabling AI workloads to be deployed and run directly within Saudi Arabia, ensuring data remains hosted and processed locally, without being transferred beyond national borders, as per the statement.

Amsal Kapetanovic, Head of KSA at Infobip, commented that, “Saudi Arabia is rapidly advancing its digital economy and accelerating its Vision 2030 ambitions, making trusted, in-country digital infrastructure more important than ever. In times of regional uncertainty and heightened geopolitical tensions in the Gulf, having sovereign, locally hosted data centers isn’t just a regulatory convenience; it’s a strategic necessity.”

“With our new data center in the Kingdom, enterprises and government entities can run AI workloads locally, meet regulatory requirements with confidence, and maintain continuity even during crises, benefiting from secure, low-latency infrastructure that supports innovation at scale while enhancing digital sovereignty and operational resilience,” Kapetanovic further added.

According to the statement, “By investing heavily in the Kingdom, Infobip is signaling its long-term ambitions in the region while enabling faster, more reliable AI-driven responses across conversational channels and customer engagement services. “

Furthermore, the new data center will be available for enterprise and public-sector customers across Saudi Arabia seeking compliant, sovereign AI compute and storage within the Kingdom.
