#saudi #leap25 – Jonathan RossCEO of groq Today, at Dammum, supported by a $1.5 billion investment in Saudi Arabia, we announced the opening of the second Groqcloud region of AI reasoning leaders and the largest AI reasoning centre in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Talk on the main stage of Leap 2025 Company Tareq AminAramco Digital and his former CEO Abdullah Arswaha Minister of Communications and Information Technology, Ross confirmed that GroqCloud is currently running live on 19,000 Groq LPUs (language processing unit). The new AI infrastructure hub was built in collaboration with Aramco Digital And with financial support of Aramco . Amin emphasizes that the GroqCloud service does not price premiums, and Saudi Arabia is currently at the lowest cost to infer the world’s AI models.
so what? – GROQ’s AI Inference Cloud Region debut in Saudi Arabia is the first time a public cloud region has been launched to serve international users across the Middle East. Additionally, while some other vendors plan to provide the latest AI cloud computing services in the region, GROQ is currently deploying cutting-edge AI infrastructure at scale and using it anywhere in the world It is also worth noting that it offers the fastest reasoning service possible. This new hub significantly reduces latency for Saudi Arabia’s GroqCloud and for users across the region.

in Leap 2025 today, Aramco Digital and groq Announced opening of the largest AI computing infrastructure hub in Europe, the Middle East and Africa DunmumSaudi Arabia. The announcement was made by Tareq Aminformer CEO of Aramco Digital, and Jonathan RossCEO and founder of GROQ ON LEAP25 Main stage he hosts Abdullah Arswaha Minister of Communications and Information Technology in Saudi Arabia.
The new AI Inference Center globally hosts GROQ’s second Grogcloud area, with 19,000 LPUs (language processing units).
GROQ builds a high-performance AI infrastructure designed to serve more than 4 billion people in Saudi Arabia, the Middle East, Africa and other countries. The AI Inference Center project is supported by $1.5 billion, combined with investments from ARAMCO and GROQ.
Tareq Aminand then CEO of Aramco Digital, and Jonathan RossGROQ CEO and Founder announced a new partnership between the two companies and built the largest AI computing center in its. Jumping March 2024.
During SDAIA’s Global AI Summit (GAIN), GROQ will be releasing the new Saudi Arabian inference data center as a token as a token as a token for AI inference through Saudi Arabia’s new Saudi Arabian inference data center. It has announced that it will offer 20% to 40%.
According to Ross, Groq will deploy at least 25 million tokens of computing by the end of the first quarter of 2025. Meanwhile, Aramco Digital and Groq have noted that Gain can expand its new reasoning center to provide 1 billion tokens. Second in compensating compatibility.
In December, GROQ loaded several Boeing 747 jets with a massive shipment of LPUs (Language Processing Unit) Groqracks heading to Saudi Arabia. The shipment included hundreds of Groqracks, which housed tens of thousands of LPUs.
The Aramco Digital and Groq teams worked to build and configure the GROQ system for the new AI reasoning centre in Dammam, Saudi Arabia during the 2024-2025 holiday season.
Earlier this month, Groq announced the appointment of Fahad Altief As Vice President and Managing Director of MENA, based at GROQ’s new regional headquarters in Saudi Arabia.
Zoom out – Significant and sustained growth of trained AI models has shifted to production environments, and demand for inference has increased rapidly. Since launching GroqCloud last March, over 800,000 developers around the world have used thousands of applications running on the LPU™ inference engine via the GROQ API to create a real-time inference platform I am participating in. The platform promises real-time guesses with lower latency and higher throughput than its competitors, primarily for use in generation and conversational AI applications. GROQ developed an LPU, or language processing unit, speeding up inference, co-locating computing and memory on the same chip, eliminating resource bottlenecks.
