Topics We're Asked About Weekly
Build Vs Buy

Data Residency & Compliance
UAE Data Protection Law, DIFC / ADGM regimes, DHA/SCFHS for health data. Which deployments stay on-shore, which can cross borders, and how to prove it.
Vendor Due Diligence

Talent & Org Design
Hiring AI engineers in a hot UAE market, structuring an internal AI team, and deciding what stays in-house vs agency.
Infrastructure Strategy
On-prem GPU servers vs cloud, air-gapped deployments for government / defence, hybrid architectures with G42 / Core42 / AWS ME.
Change Management

Not A Fit
