Under the deal, Humain will designate at least 50 megawatts (MW) of dedicated AI compute capacity to support Cohere’s next-generation foundation models, the two companies said in a statement.
The collaboration was announced during a visit by Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney to Saudi Arabia. Canada has been looking to strengthen ties and expand investment with Gulf countries.
The expansion is expected to be live by the fourth quarter of 2027, with the ability to scale the deployment over the next five years. Firms will also collaborate on the development of enterprise AI solutions and sovereign AI models, including Arabic-language and domain-adapted foundation models.
